Delhi's Weather Weirdness and Why You Should Care (Or Not)
Delhi's got this weird weather weirdness going on right now. i just checked and it's...there right now, hope you like that kind of thing. 21.11°c feels like 20.03, which is basically perfect if you're into that crisp bite of air that makes you wonder if you should've brought a light jacket. humidity's at 29%, which means your hair might decide to rebel mid-strut but your phone won't die from sweat. pressure's 1011, which sounds like a math problem but apparently means the air's got some serious weight to it. grnd_level's 985, which is basically the earth sighing because it's not as high up as sea_level. confusing? yeah, totally. but hey, that's weather for you.
if you get bored, [cities] are just a short drive away. like, if you're tired of the chaos, you can escape to somewhere quieter. or maybe not. depends on your mood. i heard someone say the local chai at that one spot is life-changing, but another person told me it's just okay. drunk advice from a stranger at a bus stop, basically. someone told me that the best street food is hidden in alleys you'd never think to look down. i tried it once and ended up with a stomach that felt like it was doing the cha-cha. reviews are messy, just like this city.
*gear list for surviving this weather: a light jacket that doubles as a pillow, a phone charger that's always full (because you'll need it for endless google searches about weather patterns), and a sense of humor that's as dry as the air. seriously, you'll need it.
pro-tip: if you're looking for a place to crash, check out that hostel near the metro. someone said it's got the best rooftop views, but another person warned about the snoring. drunk advice, but hey, it's free.
random local noun: the metro itself. it's a beast, but it gets you places. just don't try to nap on the seat because someone might steal your bag. or maybe they won't. who knows?

closing thought*: delhi's weather is like that friend who shows up unannounced. sometimes it's cool, sometimes it's a hot mess, but you can't help but be a little obsessed. just remember to pack layers and a sense of adventure. or just stay inside and watch netflix. your call.
