New Delhi, Sep 29 (TIWN) The national capital has witnessed a record rainfall in September this year with 18 days of light to heavy showers. However, the complete dry spell for the last three days in the city has put a question mark on the possibility of breaking the September 1944 record of 417.3 mm rainfall.

According to the India Meteorological Department, the city witnessed 4.1 mm rainfall last on September 25. Out of the 18 days, heavy rain was witnessed for four days while on the remaining days it was either light or moderate rain. 

With just two days left for outgoing Southwest monsoon for 2021, Delhi would need at least 4.1 mm rainfall to surpass its own record of rainfall. According to IMD's data, Delhi's Safdarjung observatory has so far recorded 413.3 mm rainfall, till 8.30 a.m. on Wednesday.
