During the previous 24 hours, maximum temperatures across most parts of Delhi rose by 1 to 2 degrees Celsius, while minimum temperatures remained largely stable.

Southwesterly winds continued to dominate the region, generally blowing at speeds of 10 to 15 kmph. A stronger gust of 46 kmph was recorded in Palam during the evening.
