Delhi Sizzles on Second Hottest Day of 2025, IMD Forecasts Relief with Upcoming Rains

Delhi saw its second hottest day of the year as the mercury touched 38.2°C. But the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted relief in the shape of rain from today.

Points to note:

Highest temperature recorded was 5°C more than usual for this season

Light to moderate rain in the next 48 hours

The rain will likely lower temperatures by 3-4°C

This weather phenomenon emphasizes the growing unpredictability of Delhi's climate, with extremely hot weather followed by momentary coolings. The IMD recommends people to drink plenty of water and make the necessary precautions during the heat wave.
