New Delhi, Feb 27 (IANS) After a cold winter, 2020 may surprise one with warmer than normal summer.
According to India Meteorological Department (IMD), the average maximum temperature is likely to be higher than normal by 1 degree Celsius plus in Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, West Rajasthan and Arunachal Pradesh during March-May.
J&K, Haryana, Chandigarh and Delhi might witness the summer warmer by about 0.5-1 degree Celsius, IMD said in a statement on Friday.
