Forecast

The barometric pressure in New Delhi changes frequently due to the city's location in a vast plain. Pressure systems from the Himalayas and the Arabian Sea influence the city. These systems bring changes in pressure, leading to varying weather conditions.

New Delhi is situated in the Gangetic-Himalayan Plain, surrounded by the Himalayas to the north and the Aravalli Hills to the southwest. This unique landscape affects the atmospheric pressure. The Himalayas block cold winds from central Asia, while the Aravalli Hills funnel hot winds from the desert regions. This combination leads to a significant impact on the pressure patterns.

The changing pressure patterns result in extreme weather fluctuations in New Delhi. During winter, cold winds bring low pressure, resulting in fog and chilly days. In summer, hot winds from the desert bring high pressure, leading to scorching heat. The pressure changes also bring monsoon winds, resulting in heavy rainfall and thunderstorms during the summer months.
