Delhi recorded a below-normal daytime temperature on Thursday, with the maximum settling at 34.5 degrees Celsius. The city experienced cloudy skies throughout the day, and weather officials forecast light drizzle in the national capital and surrounding areas. The light rain is expected to continue into the evening, providing some relief from the usual summer heat. This cooler weather is part of the ongoing monsoon season, which typically brings increased humidity and periodic rainfall to northern India. Looking ahead, meteorologists predict that Delhi may see more light rain next week, as monsoon conditions persist. Residents are advised to carry umbrellas and be prepared for sudden showers. The below-normal temperature is a departure from the average for this time of year, which often sees highs around 36-37 degrees Celsius. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) continues to monitor the weather patterns. No major disruptions have been reported due to the weather so far. The light drizzle is expected to keep the air quality moderate, as rain helps settle dust and pollutants. Commuters experienced some delays on the roads due to wet conditions, but traffic moved smoothly overall. The forecast for the coming days indicates similar conditions, with partly cloudy skies and a chance of light rain. Residents are encouraged to stay updated with local weather reports for any changes.
