North India woke up to its coldest morning of the season, with Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan and Delhi recording single-digit minimum temperatures.

Delhi touched 8°C, its lowest so far, while stations like Bathinda (6°C), Ludhiana (6.4°C) and Karnal (7°C) also saw a sharp dip.

Rajasthan’s Sikar was the chilliest at 4°C, falling nearly 6°C below normal.

Despite the noticeable drop, conditions do not meet cold wave criteria, as most readings were only 2–3.5°C below normal.

No strong western disturbance is expected this week, but light clouding may develop over parts of Rajasthan.

Single-digit mornings are likely to continue till the end of November without any major cold wave.
