Rain in Northern Plains
Thick thunderclouds can be seen hovering over the northern parts of Punjab and Haryana. During the latter part of the day, we can expect some thundershowers in the plains including Delhi-NCR.
The two-day activity will keep temperatures under check in the plains as well. Minimums are also around or below normal at present. The Safdarjung Observatory in Delhi recorded 37.2°C as the maximum on Wednesday, while Chandigarh was cooler at 35.4°C. Most of the places in the plains will not see a significant change in temperatures during the next 2 days.
