Dense fog in Srinagar has wreaked havoc over the city. The one to bear the entire brunt has been flight services. For the second consecutive day, all flights from and to Srinagar have been canceled. Poor visibility had caused the flight services to remain suspended on Sunday as well.

If an improvement in foggy conditions are seen, services are expected to resume. As per the weathermen at Skymet Weather, the prevailing Western Disturbance is expected to bring rain and snow in the higher reaches of the state of Jammu and Kashmir.

Whenever a Western Disturbance approaches the Western Himalayas, winds die down which results in an increase in haziness and fog makes an appearance over many parts of the hilly state of North India. As the weather system is expected to move away thus conditions will witness some improvement during the next 24 hours.

However, the improvement will be short lived as another system is approaching the Western Himalayas around November 23. During that time, foggy conditions will once again make a comeback resulting in some inconvenience to the residents of Srinagar.

The weather conditions are expected to clear up around November 27 completely. During that time, both minimum and maximum temperatures will witness a fall.
