The maximum temperature in north-west and central India would fall by 2-4-degree Celsius during the next two days and rise thereafter, the IMD said.
Heat-wave conditions are very likely to abate in isolated pockets over Jammu division, Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Vidarbha, Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand from Thursday onwards.
