Meanwhile, in a big relief for the Delhiites who are reeling under heat-wave-like conditions, the IMD on Sunday predicted that monsoon will hit the national capital anytime between June 29 to July 1.
According to the IMD and the private weather forecasting agency Skymet, Delhi will see arrival of monsoon on-time while the rainfall in Long Period Average (LPA) is not yet clear.
The monsoon's course had been subdued for over a week. However, from Sunday, it has revived and started moving towards the north, weather analysts said.
