Delhi weather: Light rain, thunderstorms expected on Friday
India
Delhi's staying foggy and cloudy for now, but get ready for light rain, thunderstorms, and gusty, possibly stronger winds this Friday.
Mornings will be chilly and daytime temperatures will be milder.
The rain should clear by Saturday, though chilly mornings with fog and breezy winds will stick around.
Why bother?
Air quality is still a big issue—the 24-hour average AQI was 330 (very poor) on Thursday, Jan 22, 2026—so it's smart to wear a mask and try to head outside around midday when things are a bit better.
Looking ahead, next week brings more stable weather with partly cloudy skies and morning fog.
If you're planning something outdoors, note that conditions for Jan 26, 2026 are not confirmed by the IMD/CPCB report.
