Weather Forecast For North India: The winter seems to be abating in North India as the cold is gradually abating bright sunshine in Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, and Rajasthan. However, the flip-flop in the weather that we saw over the last two weeks is likely to continue due to the effect of a Western Disturbance.
A fresh Western Disturbance is likely to affect the western Himalayan region from February 8.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued an alert for rain and fog in several states, including Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan and Bihar. The weather in Delhi will remain dry during the day, but the temperature may drop as there is a possibility of rain. Cold winds may blow in the morning and at night.
A bulletin from the IMD read: “Cold wave conditions may prevail in isolated places over Himachal Pradesh and northern parts of Rajasthan Dense fog at isolated places over Himachal Pradesh. Thunderstorm/ Lightning at isolated places over Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand Uttar Pradesh.”
