Delhi Air Quality to Improve, Then Worsen

Delhi's air quality is projected to shift from its current state to the 'moderate' category by Saturday, February 7, with expectations of continued improvement into Sunday, February 8. This respite is largely attributed to increasing wind speeds, forecast to reach between 15-25 km/hr on Saturday, which will significantly help in dispersing airborne pollutants like Ozone (O3) and PM 2.5.

Looking ahead, the air quality is anticipated to degrade back into the 'poor' category by February 9. Meteorologists note that recent western disturbances have been weak, bringing no significant rainfall to the region. Partially cloudy skies and good wind speed are expected through Saturday, contributing to cleaner air.
