Fog Update: The Indo-Gangetic plains are now experiencing a coldwave, that is yet to lighten up on the area. Although the intensity has slightly decreased, Rajasthan, Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, and Uttar Pradesh will still have to deal with the bitter cold and accompanying fog during the weekend.
The Indo-Gangetic plains will continue to see dense to extremely dense fog across Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, and Uttar Pradesh for the next two days due to weak winds and high surface moisture, predicts the India Meteorological Department (IMD). Many areas of Rajasthan are expected to see coldwaves or severe coldwaves, while isolated pockets of Punjab, Haryana, Chandigarh, Delhi, and west Uttar Pradesh will also experience coldwave conditions during the next 24 hours.
