The rising trend in the mercury, coming after eleven days of relatively cool weather which saw the temperatures plummet to a low of 32 degrees Celsius earlier this week, was due to the dissipation of the upper air cyclonic movement.
The upper air cyclonic storm, originating from Rajasthan, had moved away from the capital since Friday, setting off a series of dry winds over Delhi.
