NEW DELHI: At the Safdarjung station, considered representative of Delhi weather, a minimum temperature of 4.5 degrees Celsius (°C) was recorded on Monday, slightly down from 4.9°C recorded a day earlier and four degrees below normal for this time of the year.
This is the joint lowest minimum temperature recorded this season, as Delhi clocked 4.5°C on December 12 as well. The last time Delhi had a lower minimum in December was 3.2°C, recorded on December 20, 2021.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) issued a "yellow" alert for the region till Wednesday, forecasting moderate fog and isolated cold wave conditions, and forecast the minimum to hover around 5°C.
Meteorological experts said clear skies were leading to a drop in temperature, but a marginal rise is likely from Tuesday due to the impact of a western disturbance, which is bringing moisture.
Delhi reported shallow fog on Monday, with the lowest visibility recorded at 800 metres. A further dip in visibility in the early hours on Tuesday and Wednesday is likely.
