Heatwave relief expected in northwest India

The IMD says cooler days are coming for Northwest and Central India starting June 14, with temperatures expected to drop by 2-4°C. Rajasthan has been baking, especially Sri Ganganagar at a scorching 48°C. Thunderstorms could bring some much-needed relief to Eastern Rajasthan between June 15-16. Delhi, though, will keep feeling the heat—temperatures near 45°C are likely until at least June 13.

TL;DR

Heatwave has become a health risk

This heatwave isn't just uncomfortable—it's a real health risk. Delhi and parts of Rajasthan are under red and orange alerts, and officials are urging everyone to stay safe and take precautions. The upcoming cool-down should finally give people in Northwest and Central India a break from the extreme weather, but if you're in Delhi, hang in there—a little more patience is needed before things get better.
