Delhi NCR weather today: Showers bring temperature dip across national capital; IMD predicts dry spell from tomorrow
However, despite the damp start to the week, the weather office noted that dry weather will return swiftly.
Delhi and neighboring regions experienced sudden thunderstorms, overcast skies, and heavy showers this Monday morning. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) forecasted moderate to heavy rainfall and thunderstorms in Gurugram, Faridabad, Noida, and Ghaziabad for the early hours of the day. However, the weather office anticipated dry weather would return quickly.
According to the city forecast for Gurugram, partly cloudy skies with no significant rain were expected from October 12 to October 15. On Sunday, Gurugram's maximum temperature was 31 degrees Celsius, three degrees below normal, and the minimum temperature was 24.4 degrees Celsius, with no rainfall until 5:30 PM on Sunday. In the capital, intense morning downpours and thunderstorms caused water accumulation on low-lying roads near the Jhandewalan Temple area in Karol Bagh.
Over the past 24 hours, maximum temperatures in Delhi were 1 to 2 degrees Celsius cooler than the previous day, ranging from 30 to 32 degrees Celsius, while minimum temperatures were between 21 and 24 degrees Celsius. The IMD predicted a brief wet spell, with partly cloudy skies and dry conditions across Delhi for the following six days.
Daytime highs were expected to remain between 31 and 35 degrees Celsius, with sunny to partly cloudy conditions ahead. Faridabad, Noida, and Ghaziabad remain under the broader Delhi-NCR weather warning.
