The recent rainfall has not only reduced temperatures but also significantly improved Delhi’s air quality. Strong winds and intermittent showers have helped clear pollutants from the atmosphere, resulting in some of the best air quality levels recorded in recent years for the month of May.
Environmental experts attribute the improvement to the natural cleansing effect of rain and better atmospheric circulation. Forecasts suggest that air quality is likely to remain in the moderate category over the coming days.
Meanwhile, meteorologists do not expect heatwave conditions to return during the first week of June. Although temperatures may gradually rise once the current weather system weakens, no severe heat spell is anticipated in the near future.
As Delhi enters June, residents can expect cloudy skies, scattered showers and occasional strong winds to continue providing relief from the harsh summer conditions. With cooler temperatures, improved air quality and no immediate heatwave threat, the capital is enjoying a welcome break from the extreme weather witnessed earlier in May.
