Temperature in the State Capital plummeted to a new low on Saturday, marking the first drastic drop for the month. While the beginning of December saw a variation between 30°C and 29°C till the December 10, there was a drop of 7°C on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The decrease in temperature was the first significant drop for the month with further descend forecasted towards the end of the month. Temperature at night dropped a whopping 10 points from 17°C on Friday to 7 °C on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Of course, these will not be lowest as the last week of the month has colder days in store with temperature during the day to remain 18°C and night to 5°C, just above freezing point.<\/p>\n

Apart from the rain that caused the upset in temperature on December 7 and 8, more rains in the fourth week of the month would be the main contributor to the almost freezing temperatures in the last week of the month.<\/p>\n

For 2020, the lowest temperature recorded during day time was 23°C, while night recorded 10°C for the entire month of December. Comparatively, the drop in 5°C for both day and night this year is a new record in itself as the average temperature for the month in the last 10 years is 24°C during the day and 11°C at night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
