Delhi weather has remained dry for the past few days. Moreover, the national capital has been witnessing warm days while the nights have remained on the cooler side. Pollution levels have been on the higher side as well with the city getting a taste of what is in store for the national capital.

Now also, due to prevalence of light northwesterly winds, which are dry in nature, dry and warm weather will continue during the day. Nights will remain cool with a slight nip in the air during the early morning hours.

Talking about Pollution levels, due to prevalence of dry weather and light winds, local smoke will increase pollution in Delhi and the NCR region gradually as days progress. Stubble burning in Punjab and Haryana will add to the woes of the national capital.

However, a fresh Western Disturbance is expected to approach the Western Himalayas. The system will induce a Cyclonic Circulation over the Northwestern Plains. Due to this system, on October 23, light rainfall activity is expected over some parts of the national capital.

However, these short spells of light rains will not be enough to make the pollutants present in the atmosphere go away.
