Night temperatures in Lucknow and Kanpur have risen to above normal during the last two days but they could fall after the next 24 hours as northerly winds will once again start to blow. Kanpur witnesses an average night temperature of 8.6 degrees while Lucknow records 8.4 degrees as average minimum during the month of December.

Maximum temperature in Kanpur on Saturday morning was 23.4 degrees which is marginally lower than the normal average of 24.8 degrees.
Precipitation will reduce fog in Uttar Pradesh as the humidity levels in the atmosphere will drop. The region remains prone to foggy weather due to being close to the sea.
