Analysed 17 Jul 2026·4 sources analysed·Delhi, India·General
Delhi Records Hottest July Day in Two Years Amid Hot, Humid ConditionsPreviousNext

Delhi experienced its hottest July day in nearly two years on July 16, with temperatures reaching up to 39.2°C amid high humidity and limited rainfall. The India Meteorological Department forecast continued hot and humid conditions through July 17, with isolated thunderstorms possible but widespread rain unlikely. Experts attribute the heat to dry winds and depleted moisture from southwesterly winds. Temperatures are expected to slightly decrease after the weekend, potentially easing the discomfort.
