Delhi Burns in the Broiling Scorch During April, Which Breaks Three Years of Temperature Record

Delhi is involved in record-breaking heat this April, and this was caused by the maximum and minimum temperatures rising to record highs-been above those experienced during the last three years. This Sunday had all the thermometers at a high for the month in the year 2022. The trend is supposed to remain for several more days,
maintaining a heat spell over the capital, as said by the India Meteorological Department (IMD).

Now, Even More Unbearable Warmth Becomes Night Time

And very much more worrisome is that the nights do not provide any relief. The lowest temperature recorded on Monday was 26.2 degrees Celsius. Thus, it was 3.5 degrees above normal. This means it was 3.5 degrees above normal. It was tied with the eve of 2022 for the highest night temperature in April over three years.

Travellers would hardly get a dry bed after a scorching day, considering the sultry, dry nights. Once Again, Touch the Day Temperature at 41 Degrees. Monday also saw the highest point for that day as it reached 41.3 degrees Celsius,
thus marking three times this season that Delhi has reported temperatures above 41 degrees.

As compared to normal April weather conditions, this is 3.6 degrees above normal. The highest temperature among the colonies was recorded in the Ridge area (41.9 degrees Celsius), and at the Pitampura station, the highest minimum temperature was recorded, which was 29.9 degrees Celsius

. Hot days combined with warm nights serve to add to the discomfort suffered across the metropolis.

Add to the Dry Winds and the Low Humidity

During the day, there was an increase in humidity from 74% in the morning to 13% in the afternoon in the capital. In what is left, it has intensified the heat and made it burdensome for outdoor activity. It would rather pour a little promise on the people of the city seeking some form of clearing weather with winds expected at a speed of 10
to 20 km/h, according to the IMD.

Suffering from Rising Heat Leads to Decline in Air Quality

Although air quality also dropped along with soaring temperatures, it also worsened in terms of air quality-for example, the Air Quality Index (AQI) took a jump to 205 on Monday, where “poor” levels fell into that category drastically again from a reading of 140 made on Sunday. Experts said there would be an improvement in pollution
levels upon the advent of more severe winds in the coming days.

More Heat for Month End

By the same meteorological report, the warm spell will probably last until the end of 27 April, at least, during which there will be slight variations in the temperature scale. With the sky remaining clear and hot sunlight always shining on the city, the residents are warned to drink plenty of fluids and avoid as much as possible during the afternoon hours.
