Sizzling June in Delhi: The upcoming days will witness a blend of scorching heat and potential reprieve as rain and thunderstorms make their way into the city. Here's a sneak peek into the weather forecast for the days ahead:
June 12
- Daytime Heat: Temperatures could soar up to 43-45°C, marking a significant increase of 3 to 5 degrees compared to the normals[5]. Brace yourself for an extremely hot day, with the 'real feel' temperature reaching an astounding 51.9°C[1][2]. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has declared a red alert, warning of severe heatwave conditions[2].
- Evening Relief: A ray of hope comes in the form of evening thunderstorms, providing a much-needed break from the intense heat[3].
June 13

- Weather Conditions: Expect to see heatwaves in isolated spots. Thunderstorms and light rain are likely to bring some relief, possibly lowering temperatures[5].
June 14
- Cooling Down: Maximum temperatures are predicted to drop to around 38°C as the ongoing rain and thunderstorms continue to cool the city[5]. The similar weather conditions are expected to persist, lessening the intensity of the heatwave[5].
In summary, June 12 will be incredibly hot, but the outlook brightens as we move towards June 13 and 14. Thunderstorms and rain are forecasted to bring some relief from the sweltering heat, helping lower temperatures and making the city a bit more bearable during the day.
As we move through the blistering June in Delhi, the weather forecast indicates that the intense heat on June 12 may begin to ease. Thunderstorms and rain are expected to commence, offering a much-needed reprieve from the scorching temperatures, which have been forecasted to drop on June 14. On the contrary, weather-forecasting suggests that June 13 will witness isolated heatwaves persisting, albeit potentially easing due to the predicted thunderstorms and light rain.
