Forecast of Hottest day in Delhi

April 24, 2014 1:02 PM | Skymet Weather Team

The ongoing spell of hot weather in Delhi could worsen further in the coming two days as the maximum temperatures are expected to surge beyond 38°C, the highest maximum recorded in Delhi till now. According to the latest weather update by Skymet Meteorology Division in India, consistent surface heating due to clear skies will push up the temperatures. Delhi recorded a maximum of 35.6°C on Wednesday.

Skymet Meteorology Division in India explains that the rise in maximum temperature in Delhi will also depend on the condition of the winds. If winds blow from the Thar desert and reach Delhi, the day temperatures will shoot up but if they blow from the Western Himalayan region, the temperatures will be tolerable.

According to the latest weather update, Western Disturbances in the coming days will now track more towards the northern latitudes and will not affect the national capital much during the next two to three days. However, such weather systems may bring squally winds to Delhi and give some reprieve from the heat.

A similar reprieve from heat condition is expected on Friday evening or late night as atmospheric conditions would be suitable for squally winds under the influence of a Western Disturbance over the Western Himalayan region. Chances of rain in Delhi are less and the weather in Delhi would continue to be deprived of moisture.
