High-velocity winds reaching up to 70 kmph and severe hail battered towns, snapping electricity and telecom services and felling trees and power lines.
Flash floods washed away around 24 vehicles in Nirmand and Jagad Khana of Kullu district, reflecting the intensity of the sudden cloudbursts. The downpour also caused significant losses to standing apple and mango crops in the mid-hills and lower regions.
