Delhi Weather Today: As per the IMD’s weekly forecast, the temperature in Delhi on Tuesday will be around 41°C, while the minimum will be around 26°C. The India Meteorological Department has forecast a partly cloudy sky with the possibility of light rain or drizzle in one or two places on Tuesday afternoon or evening with gusty winds of 30-40kmph. There is also a possibility of dust storms, thunderstorms accompanied by rain, and gusty winds with speeds of 40 to 60 km/h in Kosali, Mahendargarh, Rewari, Narnaul, Bawal (Haryana), as well as Khairthal, Kotputli, Alwar, Viratnagar, and Rajgarh (Rajasthan).

 

Senior IMD scientist Kuldeep Srivastava said, "Heatwave conditions in the first half of May were less severe due to Western disturbances that affected parts of northwest India. As the western disturbance is approaching northwest India, for the next 7 days, we are not expecting heatwave conditions there. But the temperature will be higher, up to 40°C."

Meanwhile, the air quality index (AQI) of Delhi was measured at 162, placing it in the moderate category. Other regions in the NCR such as Ghaziabad (160), Greater Noida (171), and Noida (186) also recorded moderate AQI levels. However, Faridabad (100) reported satisfactory air quality, while Gurugram (273) fell into the poor category.

Odisha has so far recorded a maximum temperature of 40 degrees Celsius. The IMD in its forecast said there will be no change in day temperatures at many places in the state for the next five days.

The Met Office also issued a yellow warning and said thunderstorms with lightning and gusty surface wind speed reaching 40-50 km per hour are very likely to occur at one or two places in Balasore, Bhadrak, Kendrapada, Jagatsinghpur, Jajpur, Cuttack and Khurda districts till 8.30 am on Wednesday.
