The Delhi-NCR region is expected to witness a partly cloudy sky on Saturday, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said. It is unlikely that the city will receive any more rain in the coming days.
Maximum temperatures over Delhi are likely to be in the range of 31–33°C today, it said. On Sunday, however, the national capital can expect a largely clear sky. The maximum and minimum temperatures over Delhi are likely to be in the range of 31°C to 33°C and 18°C to 20°C, respectively, the IMD said.
On Monday, October 19, the maximum and minimum temperatures over Delhi are likely to be in the range of 31°C to 33°C and 18°C to 20°C, respectively. No significant weather activity is likely over northwest, central, east, and northeast India during the week, the IMD forecast released on Saturday said.
"The wet spell with heavy falls is likely to continue over south peninsular India till October 23, 2026. Isolated very heavy to extremely heavy rainfall is also likely over Tamil Nadu on October 17 and 20; Coastal Andhra Pradesh, Rayalaseema, South Interior & Coastal Karnataka, and Kerala on October 17, 2026," the IMD said.
Meanwhile, hot and humid weather conditions are likely to prevail over Konkan and Goa. Earlier, it was reported that there was no sign of winter chill in Maharashtra, with mercury levels rising in the capital, Mumbai, and other parts of Maharashtra, meteorologists said.
The late arrival of the sea breeze during the day and an anti-cyclonic circulation over Gujarat and southwest Madhya Pradesh are among the factors leading to high temperatures in several parts of the state—hovering around 35°C, an unusual phenomenon for October.
However, according to the latest IMD release, isolated thunderstorms, lightning, and gusty winds (speed reaching 40–50 km/h, gusting to 60 km/h) are likely over Konkan, Goa, and Marathwada during October 17–19. Meanwhile, central Maharashtra may witness isolated thunderstorms until at least Tuesday, October 20.
