Delhi records hottest May night in 14 years; IMD warns of more ‘warm nights’ ahead

Delhi records 2nd warm night this season, yellow alert remains for intense heat

Delhi's minimum temperature hit 32.4°C on May 25 — 6°C above normal and the warmest May night in 14 years — with yellow alert for intense heat still active. Sustained extreme heat (43-45°C highs forecast) and poor air quality (AQI 206) signal compounding climate stress on urban infrastructure, with relief from rain expected only May 28-30.
