Delhi Weather

Delhi may not exactly conjure up visions of winter. There is however, a period that lasts anything between two to four weeks between end december and the first half of january, when the temperatures take a nosedive. Flights are often delayed, and visibility is poor for much of the time. The days temperatures in celsius, range between 15 degrees maximum and 3 degrees minimum.

The summer months- May to July, can be very hot and dry. July and Jugust see the Moonsoon rains set in and cool down things a bit, however, this brings with it much humidity. The best season to visit Delhi is During the spring seasons of February to April and August to November. The bloom season of February and March make Delhi colourful. This time of the year brings greenery on the face of Delhi.

India, especially in the Summer months, can be extremely hot. The sun can be very strong so put on plenty of sun screen. Drink lots of water and try to stay in the shade when there is any. It gets so hot that the locals walk around with Umbrellas for shade.
