After recording warmer temperatures in the past few days, the day temperatures suddenly dipped on Monday as the weather became colder in the capital. It was a cloudy day on Monday and the maximum temperature was recorded at 21.2 degrees Celsius, two degrees below the normal for this part of the season. Rains are likely to lash Delhi overnight or on Tuesday as it finds itself engulfed in hailstorm and strong winds in some parts along with adjoining Western Uttar Pradesh. Temperatures are expected to dip even further after the rain and thunderstorms subside in all regions. The minimum temperatures were recorded at 13 degrees Celsius, three degrees above normal. It is likely to go down to 11 degrees Celsius on Tuesday. The sudden change in weather is attributed to a western disturbance persisting over Jammu and Kashmir region. According to MeT forecast, it will be a partly cloudy sky on Tuesday and the maximum temperature is likely to hover around 24 degrees Celsius.
