Over north Indian region, pre-monsoon storm events bring precipitation over the region during the months of March-April-May. Such storm events occur during convectively unstable atmospheric conditions culminating due to transient disturbances observed in the air mass. These may be categorized as severe storms, if the storm is associated with heavy precipitation, hail and high winds. The severe storms occur during strong vertical wind shear, which are ideal conditions for hail formation (Orville and Kopp 1977; Houze Jr. 1981).
