Rajasthan Braces for Rain, Hailstorm Alert Today

April 4, 2026

Rajasthan, April 4: The India Meteorological Department has issued a warning of heavy rain and hailstorm across parts of Rajasthan today, indicating a sudden change in weather conditions. Several regions are expected to witness thunderstorms, lightning, and gusty winds along with rainfall.

Impact of Western Disturbance

Meteorologists have attributed the weather activity to an active western disturbance, which is bringing moisture into northwest India. This system is likely to trigger rain, strong winds, and isolated hailstorms in different parts of the state.

Strong Winds and Temperature Drop

Along with rainfall, gusty winds are expected to sweep across many districts, leading to a noticeable drop in temperature. The changing weather has already brought relief from heat in several areas, delaying the usual rise in temperatures for April.

Damage Reported in Several Areas

Recent spells of rain and hailstorm in Rajasthan have caused damage to crops and disrupted daily life in multiple districts. Strong winds have uprooted trees and affected infrastructure, while hail has impacted standing and harvested crops in rural areas.

Public Advisory Issued

Authorities have advised residents to remain cautious during storms, avoid open areas, and take necessary precautions against lightning and strong winds. Farmers, in particular, have been urged to protect crops from potential damage due to hailstorms and heavy rainfall.
