Delhi's air quality remains 'poor' for 4th consecutive day
India
Delhi's air quality is stuck in the "poor" zone for the fourth day, with Friday's AQI at 254.
Some spots like Anand Vihar hit a worrying 382.
It's not just Delhi—Ghaziabad, Noida, and Gurugram are also seeing high pollution levels.
Why is air quality so bad?
A mix of slower winds, cooler temperatures, and humidity changes has let pollutants build up—think PM2.5 and other common pollutants.
And heads up: with Diwali coming up soon, firecracker smoke could push air quality from bad to worse.
What does this mean for you?
Absolutely—breathing this air can mess with your health (especially if you have asthma or allergies).
If you're in Delhi or nearby cities, it might be smart to limit outdoor time and keep an eye on local AQI updates.
