Cold winds with speeds of up to 40 kmph led to a sharp dip in mercury in Delhi on Saturday, with the city recording temperatures significantly below the normal for this time of the year, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said.
NEW DELHI: However, this relief is expected to be only temporary — the Met has forecast that the temperatures will rise in the coming days, though the Capital is unlikely to break the 40-degree mark in the coming week.
The Safdarjung observatory — the base weather station for Delhi — on Saturday recorded a minimum of 15.5°C, 2.6°C below normal and a drop of more than 5 notches from the previous day's 20.9°C. Other parts of the city were even cooler — the Ridge station logged a day's low of 10.2°C, a whopping 9.4°C below normal.
