IMD’s Advisory and Recent Observations
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a “Yellow Alert” for Delhi and neighbouring states like Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh. This forecast predicts thunderstorms and rain for the next 2-3 days. IMD officials explain that this unusual weather in March is due to a series of Western Disturbances impacting North-Western India since March 15, arriving at lower-than-normal altitudes.
On March 28, 2026, at 7 AM, Delhi’s Air Quality Index (AQI) was recorded as moderate (139) by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB). Over the past 24 hours, the maximum temperature ranged from 31-33°C, and the minimum from 19-21°C. Residents are advised to stay cautious during thunderstorms and strong winds, which could reach speeds of 30-40 kmph, gusting up to 50 kmph. This rapidly changing weather might affect travel, outdoor activities, and local infrastructure.
