On and off foggy conditions have been observed over the northern plains. Fog had abated from most parts. In fact, many places recorded good visibility with clear sky.
Since past few days, fog has once again made a comeback over few parts in the plains of North India. Today morning, few areas witnessed shallow to moderate fog, while most of the parts remained fog-free, including the national capital. Delhi witnessed clear morning today, unlike yesterday when the city recorded dense fog.
Both Allahabad and Amritsar witnessed moderate fog with the visibility dropping to 500 meters. Both these districts have been witnessing foggy mornings for quite some time now. Yesterday, Amritsar recorded very dense fog, with visibility dropping to nil.
Weathermen say that these weather conditions can be credited to the fresh spell of rain that occurred over isolated parts of northern plains. The humidity levels have increased due to these rains. This has led to drop in minimum temperatures too. Also, the wind speed is light. These factors together have led to foggy conditions over these areas.
Meanwhile in South India, Visakhapatnam has witnessed very dense fog with the visibility being observed at mere 50 meters. Also, Chennai recorded shallow fog with the visibility dropping to 800 meters. The reason could be attributed to some localized phenomenon in absence of any active weather system.
According to Skymet Weather, these weather conditions are expected to remain the same for another 24 hours.
