Gusty winds accompanied by light rain brought temporary relief to the residents from heat in the evening.

The Meteorological Department has predicted mainly clear sky on Saturday, but partly cloudy weather with the possibility of thunder or rain on Sunday.

The maximum temperature was recorded at 37.7° Celsius, which was 2.4 notches above normal. As compared to yesterday, there was a rise of 0.7°C in the average maximum temperature today.

The minimum temperature was recorded at 21.5° Celsius, which was 0.2 degree above normal. As compared to yesterday, there was a rise of 1.1°C in the average minimum temperature today, said the department.

The MeT office has predicted that the maximum temperature in the city will drop by three degrees tomorrow and will rise by 1-2 degrees thereafter.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
