Madhya Pradesh is experiencing a severe cold wave with the possibility of light rain in various districts over the next few days. The Meteorological Department attributes this dip in temperature to the influence of a Western Disturbance. More than 35 districts in the state are expected to witness moderate to dense fog, with a continuous decrease in both day and night temperatures. There is a sudden drop anticipated in the nighttime temperatures.

Key districts like Kargone, Khandwa, Jhabua, Indore, Dhar, Burhanpur, Badwani, Alirajpur, Neemuch, Mandsaur, Ratlam, Shajapur, Agar-Malwa, Dewas, Ujjain, Ashoknagar, Datia, Guna, Shivpuri, Gwalior, Vidisha, Sehore, Rajgarh, Bhopal, Narmadapuram, Harda, and Betul are expected to experience cold winds and the likelihood of light rain.

In the capital city of Bhopal, there is a considerable temperature difference between day and night, with a recorded drop of 10 degrees Celsius. The Chambal region in Gwalior experienced moderate fog on the morning of January 11, signaling the onset of colder weather.
The influence of cold winds from Himachal Pradesh and Kashmir is indicative of a prevailing cold wave in the region. Many parts of Bundelkhand are covered in dense fog, affecting visibility to 15 meters on the roads. People are resorting to additional layers to combat the intense cold, and in Tikamgarh, the frigid weather has set in, with dense fog in the morning hours, reducing visibility significantly.
