National capital Delhi is soon going to receive rains. As per forecasters at Skymet, a fresh Western Disturbance will approach the Western Himalayas by the evening or night today. Under the influence of this system, Delhi might receive good rains starting today evening. As good as it may sound, these rains will hardly have an impact over the ongoing Holi celebrations as no disturbance is likely to the festival in the day. These rains are likely to continue until the early morning of March 11.
But soon after, yet another spell of rains is likely to affect the region beginning March 14. These rains will continue until March 15. Meanwhile, the day and night temperatures will also remain below normal until March 16.
