NEW DELHI:

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast rain and thundershowers over the weekend, and said that the mercury might see a slight dip thanks to the impact of the western disturbance (WD) on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Safdarjung, which is representative of Delhi, recorded a minimum of 8.2 degrees Celsius (°C) and a maximum of 24.1°C, slightly higher than Wednesday's maximum of 22.4°C. While Thursday's minimum temperature was a degree above normal, the maximum was three notches above normal.

Dense fog was reported at Safdarjung with visibility dropping to as low as 100 metres. The fog persisted until around 8.30 am, affecting flight and train schedules but causing no diversions.

Palam airport reported moderate fog, with visibility dropping to 300m before improving quickly.
