For a long time, weather of Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan and Delhi remained dry. Hence, the temperatures over the region scaled up to 40 degrees Celsius making the daily life tough for the locals. But, rain has finally made an appearance over the region.
The reason for these rainy spell can be attributed to multiple number of weather systems, they are:

- Thanks to this Western Disturbance an induced cyclonic circulation is seen over Central Pakistan and adjoining parts of Punjab.
- A small trough is seen from this cyclonic circulation up to West Uttar Pradesh across Delhi and NCR.
Due the combined effect of all these weather systems, rain has made the weather over parts Punjab, Haryana and Delhi pleasant.
This rain activity is likely to continue over Punjab, Haryana and Rajasthan for another 24 to 48 hours. This will make the temperatures over the entire region to drop by 3-4 degrees Celsius bringing in the much needed relief from summer heat.
