"It seems unlikely that the maximum temperature will drop further this year. Unless a special system such as cyclonic activity or unusual western disturbance develops, we can expect the weather to remain similar for the coming one week," said the weatherman.

The morning temperature, however, may see some drop in the coming couple of days.

Delhi saw a prolonged spell of below average temperature for two weeks and the lowest daytime temperature was recorded as 14 degrees in the second week of January.

"After the bone chilling cold and icy winds, the weather has been very pleasant for the last few days. The bright sunshine seems all the more welcoming after the cold days," said Eshani Dey, a DU student.

Friday and Saturday are also expected to be pleasant.
