Imphal: (Waari Singbul Network) Intense rain and cyclonic hailstorm struck Manipur around 1:30 pm today, lasting for about 15 minutes, causing severe damage to homes and trees in Imphal valley. The Manipur CM took to Facebook to urge affected residents to contact their district commissioner with photos of the damage for assistance.
The hailstorm was so powerful that parts of the valley were blanketed with 4-5 inches of hail, resembling a landscape covered in thick snow.
