Overall, weather conditions will remain within the comfort range.
Northwest Indian has performed satisfactorily during the month of October. The region has recorded surplus rainfall, with excess margin of 46%, between 01stOctober and 30thOctober. Courtesy, late withdrawal of southwest monsoon, followed by prolonged wet spell of moderate rains between 13th and 17th October, the only excess region has measured 31.2mm of rainfall against normal of 21.4mm, all inclusive of mountains and plains. However, the plains are going to take a break and observe decent and cosy weather condition for the week, possibly extending even beyond.
A western disturbance is likely to arrive on 01st Nov night and stay for the subsequent 48 hours. It is a mild weather system, mostly confined to the hills, resulting light rainfall across the hilly states. Cloudy sky with an outside chance of light rainfall is predicted for the foothills of Punjab, on 02nd and 03rdNov. Rest of the region will stay cool and dry. The minimum temperatures will remain in mid and high teen without major fluctuations. The day temperatures are likely to hover around 30-31°C. Far western parts of Haryana like Hisar, Narnaul and Sirsa may be shade higher than the rest to settle down in mid 30’s. Mist and haze in the morning hours, reducing visibility and plunging air quality, will be a regular feature with no immediate respite.
