Delhi, India, often grapples with scorching heat waves during summer, typically between May and June. These waves result from a combination of factors, including geographical location, urbanization, and climate change. Temperatures soar well above 40 degrees Celsius (104 degrees Fahrenheit), sometimes even touching 45-47 degrees Celsius (113-116.6 degrees Fahrenheit). The intense heat poses severe health risks, especially to vulnerable populations like the elderly and children, leading to heat-related illnesses such as heatstroke and dehydration. Authorities issue advisories, urging citizens to stay indoors, hydrate adequately, and avoid outdoor activities during peak heat hours. Adequate measures, including cooling centers and water distribution, are implemented to mitigate the impact.
