However, we are now expecting first spell of winter rains over the plains of Punjab, Haryana and Delhi, which will mark the arrival of winter season.
According to Skymet Weather, an active Western Disturbance is likely to affect Jammu and Kashmir by November 13. This system will induce a cyclonic circulation over Haryana and adjoining parts of Punjab.
Thus, many parts of Punjab, Haryana and Northwest Rajasthan may witness light rains with one or two moderate spells by November 14.

The sky over Delhi and NCR will become partly cloudy to cloudy and light rains also cannot be ruled out over the national capital on November 15 and 16.
In fact, higher reaches of Jammu and Kashmir and Himachal Pradesh may also see season’s first spell of snowfall.
Around this period, day temperatures will drop by 2 to 4 degrees Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and North Rajasthan.
As per weathermen, rain and snow over the hilly region are necessary to drop the temperatures over the northwestern plains of the country. When the cold winds from the snow-clad mountains reach northern plains, both day and night temperatures witness drop in mercury, paving way for winters to set in.
