The weather at Delhi airport is set to improve during the next 24 hours. Fog at Indian airports in the eastern parts of the country has reduced and would have a lesser affect on flight operations. Here is a forecast update for the weather in Indian airports during the next 24 hours
Dense to moderate fog in Indian airports
- Sri Guru Ram Dass jee International airport, Amritsar
Amritsar airport is still under dense foggy conditions as moist southeasterly winds blowing at a speed of around 1 to 3 kmph are mixing up with the much slower dry and cool northerly winds. The minimum temperature is also low facilitating fog formation
- Indira Gandhi International airport New Delhi
Moderate to dense fog in Delhi airport would keep the visibility low but that will not disrupt flight operations other than the early morning hours when fog will be dense as the humidity level is around mid-nineties.
Fog/no fog at other Indian airports
- Chaudhary Charan Singh International airport, Lucknow
The airport of Lucknow would be fog free as westerly to northwesterly winds are keeping a check on moisture feed from easterly winds. Flight operations would be smoother during the next 24 hours.
- Lok Nayak Jaiprakash Narayan airport, Patna
Same conditions would keep the fog under control at the airport in Patna. Visibility is good enough and flight operations are expected to be better than the last few days.
- Netaji Subash Chandra Bose airport, Kolkata
The Netajee Subash Chandra Bose International airport would not be affected by fog and flights would be on time.
- Lal Bahadur Shashtri Airport, Varanasi
Winds have changed and the minimum temperature has also risen now, so fog will not be affective enough to disrupt flight departures and arrivals during the next 24 hours.
- Bangaluru International airport, Bangalore
Fast moving northeasterly to easterly winds and increase in minimum temperatures are disallowing fog formation, so visibility is clear at the airport for the next 24 hours.
