The thunderstorms and rain provided a brief break from the intense heat, but the relief is expected to be short-lived. Heatwave conditions are predicted to persist in Delhi until May 28, with temperatures potentially rising to 45°C (113°F). The IMD has also issued an alert for heatwave conditions, which can pose health risks such as heat exhaustion and heatstroke, particularly for vulnerable populations like the elderly, children, and outdoor workers. Reduced visibility during the storms may have also impacted transportation and air travel in the region.
