Mild winters likely to set in over most of North India

Skymet said that in the next 48 hours, temperatures might drop by 2-3 degrees over Delhi and NCR

After experiencing a rather strong cold wave condition coupled with rains around the Republic Day, maximum temperatures across most parts of North Indian plains including capital Delhi is expected to rise by 3-5 degrees and stabilise around that level thereafter till mid-February.

According to the last weather bulletin issued by the India Meteorological Department (IMD), rise in maximum temperature is very likely over plains of northwest India during next three days and no large change thereafter.

This could also signal end of the severe cold wave conditions and also start of mild winter season.
