Several parts of Delhi NCR received rain on Tuesday afternoon, bringing much-needed relief from the sweltering heat and humidity that had gripped the city over the past few days. The weather in Delhi, Noida, Gurugram and Ghaziabad is likely to remain pleasant on Tuesday as the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a yellow alert for July 7. The weather office has forecast more moderate showers through the day, with the wet spell likely to continue over the next few days.
Delhi woke up to a warm and humid morning, with the minimum temperature settling at 30 degrees Celsius, 2.1 notches above normal. It was the highest minimum temperature recorded in July since July 2, 2024, when the mercury had touched 30.7 degrees Celsius.
