Delhi-NCR’s weather is poised for a refreshing reset, with IMD warning of thunderstorms, heavy showers, and strong winds on January 31 and February 1. These events will drive down temperatures, offering a break from recent mildness while scrubbing the polluted skies.
Expect moderate fog on January 30, capping highs at 19°C and lows at 10°C. January 31 ramps up: dense morning fog transitions to stormy evenings with rain, thunder, and gusts. Temperatures: 20°C max, 7°C min.
February 1 mirrors the pattern—foggy starts, rainy nights—with peaks at 18°C and troughs at 12°C. The good news? Air quality is rebounding thanks to these winds.
Notable gains include Aya Nagar and CRRI Mathura Road at 188 (yellow), Pusa at 169. Red zones persist, however: Dr. Karni Singh Shooting Range (304), RK Puram (316), Siri Fort (314), Wazirpur (303).
Noida shows Sector-62 at 183 (moderate), while Sectors 125, 1, 116 hit 264-267 (poor). Ghaziabad’s patchwork: Indirapuram 288, Sanjay Nagar 217, Vasundhara 314, Loni 316 (severe).
This shift highlights NCR’s fragile atmospheric balance. IMD recommends staying indoors during peaks, avoiding hazards, and driving carefully in low visibility. As cleaner air circulates, the region steps into a healthier February.
