The temperature in India’s capital fell to approximately 7 degrees on Tuesday morning, accompanied by a thick layer of fog, as reported by the India Meteorological Department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Images taken in the morning from Sarai Kale Khan, AIIMS, Safdarjung, Anand Vihar, and India Gate in Delhi revealed them to be completely covered in thick fog with little visibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Tuesday night, as the cold wave grew stronger, residents of the nation’s capital sought safety in night shelters located across the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Data from the Delhi Airport Flight Information Display System indicates that approximately 30 planes at Indira Gandhi International (IGI) airport are running late, both arriving and departing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Satellite photos that showed a layer of fog spreading over Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, and Madhya Pradesh were issued by the IMD this morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Images from Moradabad, Kanpur, in Uttar Pradesh, revealed a dense layer of fog that reduced vision to nearly nothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The fog makes it hard to see the road. In contrast to normal, there aren’t any rides yet. Due to the low visibility and very chilly weather, it is dangerous to ride at this hour, according to a Moradabad rickshaw driver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The area’s night security guard claimed that the area’s cold and fog make working at night more challenging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s freezing outside, and I can’t see anything right now due to fog. It’s incredibly hard for me to work at night because of this cold, the watchman remarked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Along the roads and lanes, people could be seen gathering around bonfires to stay warm in the bitter weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to the sources, there is a possibility that more flights during the day would be impacted by the fog conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meanwhile, the Delhi airport sent the following passenger caution this morning: Flights that are not CAT III compliant may get affected while landing and takeoffs continue at Delhi Airport. If passengers need up-to-date flight information, they should get in touch with the relevant airline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Delhi airport authorities introduced the CAT-III Instrument Landing technology (ILS) as an anti-fog landing technology to aid in landings under limited runway visibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The national capital’s thick fog could have negative effects on people’s health, the IMD added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
