Cloud Cover to Keep Heat in Check

According to the India Meteorological Department, partly cloudy skies are expected to continue, preventing a rapid spike in temperatures. Daytime highs may still hover between 38°C and 41°C, but the absence of harsh sunlight should reduce the intensity of the heat. Light evening winds may add a bit of comfort.
