The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a yellow alert for Delhi, forecasting severe heatwave conditions over the next three days, with daytime temperatures expected to reach between 44°C and 46°C. This alert follows a brief respite from the heat due to cloudy skies and a dust storm over the weekend. The IMD predicts that maximum temperatures may rise by an additional 1°C to 2°C within the next 24 hours, remaining elevated until May 27. Nighttime lows are also projected to increase by 2°C to 3°C, which will exacerbate discomfort for residents, especially those without air conditioning. The alert highlights health risks, including heat exhaustion and dehydration, particularly for outdoor workers such as construction laborers and street vendors. Severe heatwave conditions are also expected in isolated areas of Punjab and Haryana. However, a potential relief is forecasted between May 28 and May 30, with light showers and thunderstorms likely to bring temperatures down across the region.
