New Delhi (Sputnik): Lately, the erratic weather conditions have been causing storms along with rain. On Sunday (10 May) several states including Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, and Himachal Pradesh witnessed dark clouds and gusty winds with lightning and rain.

In a video which has emerged on social media, a hilltop can be seen burning, raging with gusty winds under dark clouds.

The video is reported to be from the Mahoba District of the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh; locals witnessed the dramatic scenes.

The video clip was shot by one of the men who became caught in a storm along with others and took shelter nearby. Sunday's thunderstorm took a heavy toll on the crops of farmers, especially the mango growers. The intermittent rain, thunder and strong winds had caused a loss of at least 25% of India's annual mango production in the state.
