The Indian Meteorological Department said that Delhi is likely to see a cloudy sky with light to moderate rainfall on Wednesday. As the maximum temperature on Tuesday was 33.7°C and the minimum was 24.6°C, it’s expected to be at 32°C and 24°C, respectively, on Wednesday.Around 6.5mm of rain was recorded over the last 24 hours with the levels of humidity varying between 61% to 93%. An AQI between zero and 50 is considered ‘good’, 51 and 100 ‘satisfactory’, 101 and 200 ‘moderate’, 201 and 300 ‘poor’, 301 and 400 ‘very poor’, and 401 and 500 ‘severe’.As per the data published by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB), the air quality index of Delhi stood at 106, which comes under the moderate category. The dominant air pollutants in Delhi’s air were PM2.5 and PM10. On Tuesday, the union ministry of earth science’s air quality monitoring centre, System of Air Quality and Weather Forecasting and Research (Safar) said, “Air Quality Index indicates ‘moderate’ air quality. Dust (size more than 2.5 micrometer) contributes around 59% to PM10. For the next 3 days (21st, 22nd, 23rd September) peak wind speed is likely to be around 10-12 km/h causing moderate dispersion and AQI is likely to be within ‘moderate’ due to trace rainfall spells. Moderate temperature (32-33°C) and mixing layer height (around 2.0 km) maintains moderate ventilation.”
