IMD predicts further dip in temperatures across North India
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast a further drop in temperatures across the Delhi-NCR, Punjab, Haryana, and Rajasthan regions over the next two days. According to Naresh Kumar, a scientist at IMD, a western disturbance currently located near Punjab and adjoining areas is likely to cause light rain or snowfall in isolated parts of the western Himalayan region. This weather system is expected to contribute to the cooling trend in the plains. Residents in the affected regions have been advised to prepare for colder conditions as the mercury dips further.
