Delhi Weather Update - Light Showers Pound NCR Region

New Delhi: Residents of Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR) woke up to a refreshing change in weather as light showers graced the area early Thursday morning. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) had predicted thunderstorms and rain for the day, and the forecast held true, amid mild cold in the region.  

The light rain, accompanied by strong winds, has temporarily improved the air quality in the region. According to the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), the Air Quality Index (AQI) in Delhi was recorded at 260, placing it in the 'poor' category. However, the showers are expected to help disperse pollutants and bring the AQI down to more moderate levels in the coming days.
