Delhi and adjoining Noida, Gurugram, Faridabad and Ghaziabad are expected to witness dust storm and thunderstorm tomorrow, private weather forecasting agency Skymet said on Wednesday.

Another spell of dust storm and thundershowers are likely to occur around April 16 in the region. This spell will be much more intense than the previous ones., it said.

Pre-monsoon rains and thunderstorms have been lashing several parts of West Bengal for over a week now and weather experts have predicted that these weather activities are likely to continue for the next few days. Kolkata witnessed heavy showers along with thunderstorms and lightning strikes since yesterday.

According to Skymet, "In the past 24 hours, there have been light rains with one or two moderate spells over Digha, Bankura, Purulia and Shantiniketan. These weather activities are expected to continue for the coming two days as well but it would be light in nature. Most of the activities could also originate because of local weather conditions during the later part of the day. Midnapore, Kolkata and Diamond Harbour would get to witness these light rains.
