Dense fog will prevail in these places
Along with this, the Meteorological Department said that during the next two days, the minimum temperature in the plains of North-West India will increase by 2-3 degrees Celsius, but after that it may fall by 2-3 degrees. On the other hand, there is a possibility of cold wave in some parts of Punjab and on January 1 and 2, there will be cold wave conditions in different parts of Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi and North Rajasthan. During this, there will be dense fog in Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and North Rajasthan.
The minimum temperature was recorded at 6.3 degree Celsius.
The Safdarjung observatory recorded a minimum temperature of 6.3 degrees Celsius on Wednesday. The minimum temperature was recorded at 5.6 degree Celsius on Tuesday and five degree Celsius on Monday. Dharamsala recorded a minimum temperature of 6.2 degrees Celsius, Dehradun 7 degrees Celsius and Nainital 7.2 degrees Celsius, while Delhi recorded a low of 5.6 degrees Celsius on Tuesday. Meteorologists have attributed this drop in day temperature to cold northwesterly winds passing through the plains and less sunlight due to foggy weather.
Mahesh Palawat, vice-president of the Meteorology and Climate Change Department of ‘Skymet Weather’, said that due to the Western Disturbance, there was snowfall again in the mountains on December 25-26, after which the north-west cold winds are now blowing in the plains. According to the department, a ‘cold day’ is considered when the minimum temperature is 10 degrees Celsius or less and the maximum temperature is at least 4.5 degrees Celsius below normal. When the maximum temperature is 6.5 degrees or more below normal, it is considered an ‘extremely cold day’. Palawat said that the cold wave conditions in northwest India will end from Wednesday under the influence of fresh western disturbance. However, this relief is likely to last only for a few days. He told that after the Western Disturbance, the minimum temperature will fall again.
The temperature in Delhi is less than 10 degrees on December 26.
It was an ‘extremely cold day’ in Delhi on Monday as the maximum temperature was recorded 10 degrees below normal at some places. The maximum temperature at Safdarjung Observatory on Monday was 15.6 degrees Celsius, six notches below normal. This was the lowest temperature recorded on this date in December since 17 December 2020.
