Now, the winds have changed direction and southeasterly winds have begun to blow over the region. Due to this, maximum temperature has already witnessed a drop as compared to yesterday. At 10:00 am, the maximum at both Palam and Safdarjung observatory was recorded at 33 degrees which is four degrees less than yesterday.
There is more relief in sight for the city during the evening hours as dust storm, thunderstorm followed by light rains are likely over Delhi and adjoining areas of Noida, Gurugram, Ghaziabad, and Faridabad. This weather activity is expected to be short lived and will occur during the late afternoon and evening hours.
These weather activities are attributed to a cyclonic circulation over North Rajasthan and adjoining Punjab. A trough is also extending from this system across Delhi, and Haryana up to West Uttar Pradesh.
Thus, dust storm, thunderstorm may be followed by light rains. Tomorrow, temperatures are once again expected to rise but will remain below the 40-degree mark.
