10°C below normal: Capital's coolest late-Apr day in 12 yrs

NEW DELHI: The last time Delhi recorded a lower maximum in April was on April 1, 2023, at 28.4°C. But, if only the second half of the month is considered, a time when the temperature often soars above 40°C, this is Delhi's lowest maximum in 12 years, IMD data available since 2011 showed. The next lowest temperature was 29°C on April 17, 2019.

The minimum temperature in Delhi (recorded at the base station Safdarjung) was recorded at 22.8°C, which was a degree below normal. It was 22.2°C on Saturday when the maximum was 33.1°C.

Forecasts show overcast skies for Monday as well, with very light rain and gusty winds of up to 40 km/hour likely to keep the maximum around 28°C.

The minimum, meanwhile, will hover around 21°C.

Overcast skies and gusty winds with light drizzle kept Delhi pleasantly cool throughout Sunday.
