Abstract

Occurrence of severe weather, observed within a range of 200 miles around Delhi, has been investigated with reference to the maximum heights of echo tops reported in the area. While the number of severe weather reports increases with the increase in maximum heights of echo tops in the area, no significant increase in severe weather activity is observed when the echo tops reach or penetrate the tropopause. The monthly distribution of the number of hail occurrences as well as their preferred hours of occurrence have also been studied for the region.
