NEW DELHI: The intense heatwave within the nationwide capital is predicted to subside because the temperature is prone to come down within the coming days on account of a change in Western Disturbances, IMD Scientist Kuldeep Srivastava stated right here on Tuesday. Heat wave-like situation has been prevalent within the Delhi-NCR area for the final two days. Even right now, the temperature in South West Delhi, North Delhi and North East Delhi has been reported to be round 45 levels. IMD Scientist Kuldeep Srivastava informed ANI that the temperature is predicted to fall within the coming days pertaining to the sunshine drizzle and robust winds.
“The Western Disturbance is hitting Northwest India. Its effect has started to be seen in Jammu-Kashmir. On May 24 and 25, it will have its effect in Northwest India, Delhi-NCR and North Rajasthan. It will be cloudy and some light rain may also occur,” IMD Delhi Regional head Kuldeep Srivastava informed ANI.
He stated that it might rain as much as 1-2 cm in these plains, and this would possibly result in the temperature lowering by 4-5 levels Celsius. “Strong winds will also blow, whose speed can be around 40-45 km. Western disturbance is moving a bit slowly. In such a situation, it will have its effect in Delhi NCR on 26 and 27 May as well. Although there will be a slight increase in the temperature, the clouds will remain surrounded and there may be light drizzle,” the scientist stated.
He added, “There are chances of hail storm also in Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, areas of Punjab connected with Himachal Pradesh and some areas of North Rajasthan during this period. There will be thunderstorms and lightning in Delhi NCR as well on May 24 and 25”.
