Weather Forecast For Delhi
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast no rainfall for the national capital between November 10 to 15, offering no sign of relief from the declining air quality levels.
The approaching Western Disturbance is unlikely to provide any immediate relief to Delhi-NCR’s deteriorating air quality.
According to the weather body, the weather system is expected to affect the western Himalayan region from Tuesday night, November 9. However, there is currently no indication of rainfall over Delhi, limiting the chances of any significant improvement in pollution levels.
The absence of rainfall indicates that pollutants may remain trapped in the atmosphere surrounding the capital, implying that the toxic air is likely to persist over Delhi-NCR between November 10 and 15.
The maximum temperature is expected to remain between 27 degrees Celsius and 30 degrees Celsius, while the minimum temperature is likely to hover between 14 degrees Celsius and 17 degrees Celsius until November 15.
