Winter fog envelops north India, Delhi traffic hit
New
Delhi: A thick fog engulfed the national capital today
reducing the visibility levels. The region has been witnessing
chilly weather with temperatures hovering around 6 degree
Celsius. Traffic moved at a snail's pace in several places,
as the roads remained enveloped by thick blanket of fog
leading to poor visibility. Flights were affected. Winter
fog wreaks havoc in Delhi every year, it badly affects
the transport system canceling and delaying nearly flights
and trains. Many preferred to stay inside their dwellings
to keep warm. Temperatures have plummeted in almost entire
northern India and the Meteorological Department has predicted
that the weather conditions are likely to persist. Northern
India usually witnesses early morning fog every winter
when night temperatures often dip below five degrees Celsius.
