Recommendations for Today
This is a solid day for outdoor plans—morning and early evening are the sweet spots for comfort.Sunglasses will help during the brighter midday breaks between clouds, and light cotton layers should be enough.If you commute long distances or spend time near major roads (Outer Ring Road stretches, central business areas, bus depots), keeping a mask handy isn’t a bad idea—especially if you’re sensitive to dust and fine particles.Hydration still matters in this kind of dry warmth, so keep water nearby if you’re outdoors for extended periods.
