Delhi's weather warms up (for now), but air quality might dip soon

India Dec 11, 2025

Delhi woke up to a slightly warmer morning with the minimum temperature rising to 10°C, up from 9.2°C yesterday—thanks to a western disturbance shaking things up.
But don't get too cozy: the IMD says temps could drop by another 2-3°C by Friday.
Maximum temperatures are holding steady around 25°C this week.

Air quality sees a brief break, but pollution may return

Air felt a bit fresher lately, with Wednesday's AQI dropping to 259 ("poor"), the lowest since early November.
But this clean streak might not last—experts warn that "very poor" air is likely back from December 11-13 and could stick around next week.
So if you're planning outdoor plans, maybe keep an eye on those pollution updates!
