Dense foggy weather, poor visibility from Jan 7 to 10 in northwest India

Thursday, 07 January 2021 | PNS | New Delhi

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Wednesday forecast dense foggy weather and poor visibility from January 7 to 10 in northwest India. The minimum temperatures are likely to fall by 4 to 6 degree Celsius in northwest India during the next 4-5 days. The western disturbance that was affecting northwest India has currently moved eastward, for which the effect will be mostly over western Uttar Pradesh.

“Due to abundant moisture available in lower tropospheric levels and other favourable meteorological features, dense to very dense fog is very likely in some to many pockets over plains of Northwest India in the morning hours of 07th to 10th January,” the IMD said. “The minimum temperatures are likely to fall by 4-6 degree Celsius over plains of Northwest India during the next 4-5 days. Cold wave conditions are likely over the plains of Northwest India during 11th-13th January,” it said.

Under the influence of western disturbance from January 2 till January 6 (today), significant rainfall occurred in plains of northwest India, due to which, there is a significant amount of moisture across the region. The ongoing spell of rainfall over southern parts of India is expected to continue at least until Saturday. Therefore, the states of Tamil Nadu, Kerala, and Karnataka are expected to keep receiving scattered to fairly widespread showers and thunderstorms.

According to IMD, a trough in low-level easterlies runs from the east-central Arabian Sea off Karnataka coast to south Madhya Maharashtra. This active easterly wave spell is set to cause scattered to fairly widespread rains, thunderstorms, and lightning over southern peninsular India during the next 4-5 days.
