New Delhi: The air quality is likely to be in the bad to a very bad category on Wednesday and is likely to worsen even further in the next two days in the Delhi and NCR region, according to Skymet Weather.

According to weather experts from Skymet, the reason behind this is a western disturbance on the western side of Himalayas which is going to impact the flow of air in Delhi-NCR regions.
