The IMD on Friday said that Delhi will have to wait a little longer for the arrival of monsoon.
However, there's possibility of slight shower which might bring temporary respite.
"It's still a long time to wait for monsoon to reach Delhi.
First we have to see how it moves into MP, UP and then comes Delhi," said Anand Kumar Sharma, Deputy Director-General of IMD.
He added, "Temperatures are already 2-3 degrees above the normal.
Heatwaves are likely in West Rajasthan from tomorrow." Sharma, however, cited possibility of slight shower over parts of North West India which might bring temporary respite.
