Delhi-NCR residents are set to endure two more days of intense heat and heatwave conditions, with temperatures touching 43°C. However, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast rain and thunderstorms

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has warned that Delhi-NCR will continue to experience severe heat for the next 48 hours. Maximum temperatures are expected to rise by nearly 2°C, reaching around 43°C. Hot and dry winds, combined with increasing humidity, are likely to make outdoor conditions particularly uncomfortable. Residents have been advised to take precautions against heat-related illnesses as daytime temperatures remain exceptionally high.

According to IMD, a cyclonic circulation over northern Haryana and adjoining regions remains active at an altitude of about 1.5 kilometres above sea level. Additionally, a fresh western disturbance is expected to impact the western Himalayan region from June 11 onwards. These weather systems are likely to trigger a shift in atmospheric conditions across north India, including Delhi-NCR, paving the way for cooler and more unsettled weather later in the week.
