February 27, 2014 12:53 PM |

On the auspicious occasion of  Mahashivratri, there are chances of rain in Delhi during evening hours. Rain will be witnessed due to the cyclonic circulation persisting over parts of Haryana. The weather system is expected to remain in the northwest plains for the next 24 hours, causing intermittent showers in parts of Delhi and NCR.

Delhi recorded 0.3 mm of rain from 8:30 am on Wednesday till 8:30 am on Thursday. According to our latest weather update, rain in Delhi has been above normal during the month of February. 23.2 mm of rain was recorded in Delhi on 14th of February which is way above the month's average of 19.6 mm.

After recording 26.2°C as the maximum temperature, post noon yesterday, showers and clouds led to a sharp drop in day temperature. Meanwhile, night temperature rose due to cloudy sky and settled at 14°C on Tuesday, four notches above the average for the month.

However, with the clearance of the cyclonic circulation, night temperatures will fall a little in Delhi but as we are entering into March, temperatures will now remain in double digits. As far as day temperatures are concerned, they will now remain in the mid twenties during the initial days of the Month.

According to Skymet Meteorology Division in India, Western Disturbances during March tracks towards the mid latitude and it chances of affecting weather in Delhi lessens with each growing day. But snowfall in the higher reaches of the Western Himalayan region will continue to keep weather cool during morning and evening hours early on in March.
