Delhi records its lowest September minimum temperature in years, with readings around 21°C on September 29, according to forecasts and reporting by multiple outlets. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) indicates that while the minimum drops to this level, the maximum temperature is expected to hover near 32°C with partly cloudy conditions.
Both outlets link the colder nighttime temperatures to unusual late-season weather, including rain. NDTV describes “rare rain” accompanying the drop, while The Hindu focuses on the temperature record itself and notes the timing as the lowest minimum for September since 2008. The outlets differ slightly in framing—one emphasizing the rainfall and one emphasizing the meteorological record—but both agree on the minimum temperature value and the reference period since 2008.
The reports rely on IMD figures and present-day temperature forecasts for late September.
