On Wednesday 21st April 2010, the city recorded partly cloudy sky, with 35 degree Celsius accompanied with rainfall of 12.5 mm and average wind speed recorded is 6 km/hr.

The city once again saw the strong winds, thunderstorm and rainfall recording 12.5 mm brought several parts of the city to standstill on Wednesday evening due to tree-falling incidents, waterlogging and traffic jams.

Treefalling incidents were recorded are: Basaveshwaranagar, Rajajinagar, Sadashivanagar, K R Circle, Banashankari, near Bangalore Medical College and falling of electric wires/poles on buildings in Vijayanagar and surrounding areas.
