Delhi is set to experience light rain and thunderstorms on Sunday, with the India Meteorological Department (IMD) issuing a yellow alert for the day. The warning indicates the possibility of weather conditions that may cause minor disruptions, urging residents to stay cautious.

The minimum temperature in the national capital dropped slightly to 28.8°C, which is 0.8 degrees below the seasonal average. The maximum temperature is expected to hover around 33°C, offering some relief from the recent heat.

According to IMD forecasts, the city is likely to witness isolated showers accompanied by thunder and lightning. These pre-monsoon conditions are typical during early July but could vary in intensity across different parts of the city.

Humidity levels remained high, with a reading of 80% recorded at 8:30 a.m., contributing to a muggy morning despite the cooler temperatures.

Meanwhile, the air quality in Delhi showed signs of improvement. At 9 a.m., the Air Quality Index (AQI) was measured at 82, placing it in the 'satisfactory' category, according to data from the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB). This level of air quality poses little or no risk to the general public.

The IMD continues to monitor weather patterns closely and has advised residents to stay informed through official updates, especially those planning outdoor activities.
