According to the latest weather update by Skymet Meteorology Division in India, peak of Summer in Delhi is over as temperatures are not likely to see any significant rise for the next two weeks, by which time Southwest Monsoon is expected (29th June) to arrive.
The reason behind this weather in Delhi is the rain that has been occurring in the national capital and its surrounding areas since last week. Due to moisture laden southwesterly winds blowing from the Arabian Sea and maximum temperature sustaining around 40°C chances of convection rises and the national capital receives rain. Weathermen at Skymet also say that winds coming from the west direction are less hot than those experienced last week when temperatures had risen to mid-forties and above. Delhi could again observe some rain in the next 24 hours.
Delhi recorded a maximum of 40.6°C on Sunday and is expected to remain in the early forties for the next two days. Meanwhile, minimum temperature in Delhi is again recording above normal at 30.6°C after rain on Thursday had pulled down the minimum to 22.7°C on Friday morning last week. With moisture in the atmosphere absorbing the heat and clouds hovering in the sky, morning hours are likely to remain humid and a little warm.
