New Delhi : Delhiites woke up to pleasant weather and light showers Monday morning after rains ended days of uncomfortable humidity Sunday.
“Till 8.30 a.m. Monday, 1.9 mm of rain was recorded. The sky is expected to be generally cloudy,” an India Meteorological Department (IMD) official told IANS.
“There is a possibility of one or two thundershowers also. The maximum and minimum temperature would hover around 29 and 22 degrees Celsius,” the official added.
The change in weather was welcomed by residents of the city.
“I returned from Nainital on Sunday and was praying for nice weather in Delhi. It seems my prayers have been answered,” said Vidhu Aggarwal, a college student.
Prateek Sharma, a young call centre professional, said: “After three days of holidays I was not in a mood to go to office today. But when I woke up in the morning and saw the nice weather, all my laziness vanished.”
According to the met department, the change in weather is because of easterly winds blowing into the capital, a result of the cyclonic circulation over central Pakistan and Maharashtra.
