The maximum temperature in the national capital was recorded at 17.2 degree Celsius, three notches below the season's average for the National Capital Region.
According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), due to cold wave in several regions of North India, the minimum temperature in Delhi is likely to drop to three degrees on January 13 and 14.
The minimum temperature on Thursday is likely to remain consistent at 4 degrees Celsius with the possibility of only a slight drop. On Tuesday, the minimum temperature was 5.2 degrees Celsius.
