This also snapped a streak of higher-than-average minimum temperatures that the Capital has been recording since October 17.

According to data available from the India Meteorological Department (IMD), this is the most-delayed dip of minimum temperature to below the 15°C mark since 2011. It has also been a fairly warm start to November, picking up from one of the warmest Octobers the Capital has ever recorded.

Until November 18, Delhi's average minimum temperature was 17.07°C, almost three degrees above the expected (average) long-period minimum temperature of 14.2°C for the November 1-18 period.

Forecasts show Delhi's minimum temperature is likely to hover around 12°C till Thursday, before marginally rising by 1-2°C as the wind direction begins to fluctuate. Before Tuesday, the lowest minimum temperature recorded this winter was 15.3°C, on November 16.
