Delhi nights offering little relief
Nights aren't offering much relief either: temperatures are staying high, making it tough to recover from the daytime heat.
Over half of Delhi's districts are now considered at very high risk from extreme temperatures, according to a CEEW report.
On a slightly brighter note, the city's air quality actually improved to "moderate" levels (AQI 168), and stage-1 GRAP measures were also invoked.
There's hope for some rain and cooler weather by Sunday if a western disturbance moves in as expected.
