Expect a spike in temperature starting on April 25

New Delhi: The temperature rose sharply throughout the day on Monday, even though certain areas of the city had light to very light rain in the early hours of the day.

Monday’s high was 37.6 degrees Celsius, which is typical for this time of year, compared to 36.8 degrees Celsius the day before. Compared to 24 degrees a day earlier, the lowest temperature was 23 degrees Celsius, which is the season’s average.

The India Meteorological Department reports that Safdarjung, the city’s base station, along with Lodhi Road and Ayanagar, detected traces of rain before 8.30 a.m.

In the meantime, rainfall in the Ridge region was 8.7 mm, in Jafarpur 2.5 mm, Mungeshpur 4 mm, Narela 5 mm, Pitampura 2 mm, Pusa 3.5 mm, Mayur Vihar 2 mm, and Raj Ghat 2 mm. Delhi has seen 2.9mm of rain so far this month. 16.3 mm is the long-term average of rainfall in April. In April of last year, Delhi received 20.1 mm of rain. The western disturbance that is bringing rain to the hills will prevent Delhi’s maximum temperature from rising sharply.

Early in the morning, there was rain in certain areas of the city, and there were clouds in the sky. However, by afternoon, the impact of the western disturbance was evident.

Rain is expected in the highlands starting on Tuesday, but not in the city. For the following two days, the temperature won’t climb dramatically. But starting on April 25, it will start to grow, according to Kuldeep Srivastava, an IMD senior scientist.

Tuesday is predicted to see maximum and lowest temperatures of around 38 and 22 degrees Celsius, respectively. According to authorities, Tuesday’s strong winds will prevent the midday temperature from soaring even higher.
The city continued to have mediocre air quality. On Monday, the air quality index (AQI) was 127, down from 138 the previous day.
