However, the days are likely to get cooler between Monday and Wednesday, said the weather agency, predicting that a western disturbance will bring the Capital rain and push temperatures down significantly.

"A western disturbance is expected to start impacting Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR) from Monday evening and there are chances of a drizzle late at night. Much of the rain is expected on Tuesday, with light to moderate showers likely in Delhi. There is a possibility of some drizzle on Wednesday," said an IMD official.
