However, the winter chill is expected to make a comeback on Sunday, with minimum temperatures dropping below 15 degrees Celsius across the city.
Meanwhile, the India Meteorological Department-Hyderabad (IMD-H) issued a yellow alert for Friday for Adilabad, Jagtial, Kumaram Bheem Asifabad, Mancherial, Nirmal, and Rajanna Sircilla.
The minimum temperature in Adilabad, Kumaram Bheem Asifabad, and Mancherial is expected to drop further on Saturday, prompting the weather department to issue an orange alert.
It was also reported that last month was the coldest October in a decade in Hyderabad as the temperature in the month had dropped to 14.9 degrees Celsius.
Rajendranagar has witnessed the lowest temperature in the month in the city. The reason behind the chilly weather was said to be northerly winds and the passage of cyclone Sitrang.
