  "account": "Delhi's pleasant weather is expected to end soon as temperatures are forecasted to rise in the coming days, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD). In the past 24 hours, maximum temperatures were notably below normal in some areas, while minimum temperatures were below normal in many parts of the city. However, this trend is set to change from October 1, with both maximum and minimum temperatures expected to return to normal levels across most of Delhi. Maximum temperatures may reach between 33 to 35 degrees Celsius, while minimum temperatures could range from 23 to 25 degrees Celsius, as per the IMD. The pleasant weather has been influenced by a western disturbance and an upper air cyclonic circulation, which typically bring rainfall and cooler temperatures to the region. These weather systems, primarily affecting northwest Uttar Pradesh and its surroundings, have resulted in isolated to scattered rainfall and thunderstorm lightning over various parts of northern India since September 28. Once these weather phenomena dissipate, the situation is likely to worsen due to the ongoing El Nino conditions in the equatorial Pacific. El Nino, known for its warming effect on the planet, could intensify into a very strong event in the coming months and persist through February 2027, potentially keeping temperatures high even during the winter months. This could have severe consequences, such as an estimated 15,800 additional heat-related deaths in India over the next six months, as reported by a study by the University of Chicago's Energy Policy Institute.",
