Dense fog shrouds Delhi-NCR as IMD predicts more rain
Dense fog blankets Delhi-NCR after overnight rain, with temps climbing to 26-28°C and air quality lingering in the moderate range as light showers loom.
Dense fog wrapped Delhi-NCR overnight, reducing visibility on roads and at busy hubs. Temperatures are expected to rise gradually, with daytime highs projected between 26°C and 28°C, even as clouds linger and a light shower or two remains a possibility. The air quality index is forecast to stay in the moderate category, offering some relief from recent pollution levels.
Cloudy skies are likely to persist in the coming days, with forecasters noting the chance of very light rain scattered across the region. Residents are advised to keep a light jacket handy during morning hours and to monitor local updates for any changes in the weather pattern.
Delhi also logged one of its coolest March days in years, with maximum temperatures staying well below normal. Reports indicate a top around 21.7°C on a notably chilly day, contributing to a longer stretch of cooler weather than typically seen at this time of year.
Air quality has shown signs of improvement, reaching satisfactory levels for the first time this year and marking the cleanest reading in several months. This period also stands out as the wettest March in two years, bringing some respite from harsher pollution spikes observed previously.
As residents plan the week ahead, officials urge caution during foggy mornings and encourage everyone to stay updated with the latest IMD advisories. Small daily precautions can help travellers and commuters navigate the conditions more safely.
