New Delhi’s temperature this hour is shown in the live forecast above, with the day’s high typically ranging from the mid‑30s to low‑40s °C during peak summer and dropping to 7–14 °C in winter. The current conditions reflect the city’s semi‑arid climate, where clear skies and dry heat dominate much of the year.

What is the typical seasonal range for New Delhi?

Summer (April–June) sees maximums of 38–45 °C, often with heatwave alerts from the India Meteorological Department. The monsoon (July–September) brings 650–800 mm of rain, lowering temperatures to 30–35 °C but raising humidity above 70%. Winter (December–February) is mild and dry: minimums fall to 7–10 °C, with occasional fog reducing visibility in the mornings.

How does the air quality affect the weather outlook?

Air quality index (AQI) frequently enters the “severe” category in November–January due to crop burning and vehicle emissions. This can suppress daytime heating, keeping temperatures 2–4 °C cooler than clear‑sky forecasts. For outdoor planning, check the live forecast above and pair it with a real‑time AQI app.
