NEW DELHI: Contrary to Cyclone Tauktae, that resulted in the highest-ever rain listed on a day in May,” Cyclone Yaas may not have a lot of effect on Delhi and provides just a small relief in the towering mercury. Kuldeep Srivastava, scientist in India Meteorological Department, stated,”Because of the effects of Cyclone Yaas, the wind direction is predicted to switch to easterly either on Wednesday night or Thursday. There can be cloudy skies on Thursday and Friday at Delhi and temperatures are forecast to fall by 2 degrees Celsius.” But no rain below the effect of Cyclone Yaas is probably in Delhi-NCR. On Mondaythe highest temperature recorded in Safdarjung observatory was 36 degrees Celsius, four degrees below normal, whereas the minimum temperature has been 21.2 degrees Celsius, five degrees below average.
