The national capital recorded a maximum temperature of 33.7 degrees Celsius today, normal for this time of the year, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said.

The minimum temperature recorded earlier in the day by the Safdarjung Observatory, which provides representative data for Delhi, had settled at 26 degrees Celsius, one notch above the normal.

The relative humidity recorded at 5.30 pm was 72 per cent, the meteorological department said.

It has predicted "generally cloudy sky with light to moderate rain" for the next four days.

The maximum and minimum temperatures for Thursday are likely to hover around 33 and 25 degrees, respectively, the India Meteorological Department said.

Delhi's air quality was in the "satisfactory" category today.
