Foggy conditions usually affect air traffic in India during this time of the year. Fog dominates weather in Delhi airport every year, leading to disruptions and delays in flight operations. Weather in Indian airports remain prone to fog as cool and dry winds around this time of the year mix up with moist winds coming in from the seas building up optimum conditions for fog.
