The IMD has predicted "enhanced rainfall activity" over northwest India for two-three days, reported news agency PTI. 

On Wednesday, the national capital experienced moderate to heavy rain and gusty winds forcing diversion of at least seven flights and paralysing road traffic in the city. Strong winds across the city resulted in uprooted trees and snapped power and internet cables in several areas. 

The Safdarjung observatory, Delhi's primary weather station, recorded 52.4 mm of rainfall, and maximum temperature of 35.1 degrees Celsius, normal for this time of the year.

The weather stations at Palam, Lodhi Road, Ridge, Ayanagar, Delhi University, Pusa and Sport Complex (near Commonwealth Games village)  logged 92.4mm, 64mm, 21mm, 46.9mm, 21mm, 32mm and 19 mm of precipitation, respectively, as per the PTI report.
