New Delhi, April 21

Cloudy sky and windy conditions brought relief to Delhiites on Thursday morning after days of severe heat wave conditions.

According to the International Meteorological Department(IMD), the maximum temperature is likely to hover around 39 degrees Celsius on Thursday.

The weather man has already predicted a generally cloudy sky with very light

rain/thundershowers accompanied with gusty winds (speed 30-40 kmph) for all districts of the national capital.
