Blistering Heatwave Sweeps Across Delhi NCR, Temperatures Set to Near 44°C Mark
The national capital region, including New Delhi, is witnessing an intense spell of heat as temperatures continue to rise sharply this week. According to the India Meteorological Department, maximum temperatures are expected to hover between 42°C and 44°C, signaling severe heatwave conditions across the region.
Residents across Delhi-NCR are struggling to cope with scorching afternoons, with hot winds and dry conditions making outdoor movement difficult. The absence of cloud cover and rainfall has further intensified the heat, pushing the mercury well above normal levels for this time of the year.
Weather officials have warned that the ongoing heatwave is likely to persist over the next few days, with little to no relief expected. Authorities have advised people to stay indoors during peak afternoon hours, remain hydrated, and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent heat-related illnesses.
Hospitals have also reported a gradual rise in cases of dehydration and heat exhaustion, especially among vulnerable groups such as children and the elderly. Experts emphasize the importance of precautionary measures as the capital braces for one of the hottest weeks of the season.
