You know it is hot when:

• The cold tap scalds you.
• Your laundry goes from drenched to dry in one hour – line dry.
• The sweat that drips down your body dries before it can reach the ground
• The metal hangers in the closet are hot.
• The wind is so hot that it is better to stay still.
• If you have one drink you wake up the next morning with the worst headache
• You find yourself praising the weather gods when it is only 95 degrees.

It is just the beginning…next comes the monsoon, the humidity and the mosquitoes.

Delhi is a hard place to live weather-wise: The winters are too cold. The summers too hot and the monsoon is too humid. When are the good months? October – December. It is like Boston but in reverse.
