Cyclonic Circulation Keeps Delhi-NCR Weather Pleasant

“There was a cyclonic circulation over Punjab, Haryana and nearby areas, which led to rain over Delhi. Moisture-laden southwesterly winds from the Arabian Sea also helped in the development of this weather activity. Because of the moisture and the cyclonic circulation, parts of Punjab, Haryana and Delhi received rain” a weather expert said.

He further said the activity is likely to continue for the next two days, although its intensity will reduce gradually. "Since there is still moisture in the air, temperatures are not expected to rise significantly during this period. After that, temperatures are likely to start increasing again," he said.
