Delhi Weather Live Updates: Unseasonal thunderstorms bring cool spell, more rain likely
IMD has issued several alerts warning of more such weather events later this week, even though no colour-coded alert for the week ahead has been issued. It said recurring rain with thunderstorms and gusty winds up to 50 km/h could be expected in the coming week.
Delhi’s maximum temperature on Sunday stood at 31.6 degrees C, nine degrees below normal. The minimum was 19.8 degrees C, seven below normal. The maximum is expected to be 3436 degrees C on Monday, with the minimum hovering around 24-26 degrees.
IMD said that while such thunderstorms are not uncommon during the pre-monsoon season when moisture-laden southeasterly winds interact with drier westerly winds, the intensity of Sunday’s event was magnified by three active weather systems — a western disturbance and two cyclonic circulations.
