Delhi Sizzles: Warmest January Day in 7 Years!

Delhi recorded its warmest January day in seven years on Thursday, as the Safdarjung observatory registered a maximum temperature of 27.1 degrees Celsius. This reading was 6.8 degrees Celsius above the normal seasonal temperature for this time of year.

The last time Delhi experienced such high temperatures in January was in 2019, when the mercury reached 28.7 degrees Celsius. The average maximum temperature for January so far this year has been 20.4 degrees Celsius.

Looking ahead, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) forecasts a change in weather patterns. An ongoing western disturbance is expected to bring cloudy skies and rainfall to the region. Consequently, the maximum temperature is predicted to fall sharply to 19 degrees Celsius on Friday, with the minimum temperature settling around 12 degrees Celsius.
