The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast a clear sky and hot winds in the national capital on Monday, April 29. Despite growing concerns over rising temperatures, the weather today in Delhi is expected to remain consistently clear this week. Today, the mercury in Delhi is expected to be over 40 degrees Celsius, while the minimum temperature may hover around 23 degrees Celsius. Throughout the week, Delhiites can expect the maximum temperature to hover between 38 and 40 degrees Celsius, or possibly higher, and the minimum temperature to hover between 22 and 25 degrees Celsius. Moreover, the Air Quality Index (AQI) level for New Delhi today stands at an alarming 302, indicating very severe air pollution.
The air quality in several major cities in India is currently at severe levels. On April 29th, the AQI levels of notable cities were as follows: Bihar's Patna topped the list with a severe AQI level of 304. The AQI was recorded at 290 in Faridabad, 236 in Noida, 218 in Ghaziabad, 208 in Gurugram, 204 in Varanasi, and 192 in Cuttack. Especially in North India, where many cities are struggling with poor air quality, it is imperative to pay more attention to pollution control measures.
Considering these conditions, it becomes increasingly important for residents to take proactive steps to reduce the impact of pollution on their health. Measures such as reducing outdoor activities during peak pollution hours, using air purifiers indoors, and wearing masks when outdoors can help protect against the adverse effects of poor air quality. In short, when Delhi is bracing for searing temperatures and severe air pollution, citizens must remain vigilant and take necessary precautions to protect their health and well-being.
