The IMD has issued a yellow alert for dense fog across more than 15 districts in Haryana. This includes major areas like Ambala, Hisar, Karnal, Rohtak, and Sonipat.
Haryana is experiencing rapid weather fluctuations due to the impact of a western disturbance. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) in Chandigarh has issued an advisory regarding dense fog in several districts. This development comes after light rainfall was reported in many parts of the state yesterday, with similar conditions expected in some areas today, December 3, 2024.
Weather Changes Due to Western Disturbance
The western disturbance has been influencing the state’s weather patterns, causing intermittent rain and a noticeable dip in temperature. According to the IMD, this disturbance is also leading to reduced visibility levels, especially during early morning and late-night hours. The shift in weather has been prominent over the past week, with residents reporting foggy mornings and chilly evenings.
Dense Fog Warning for Over 15 Districts
The IMD has issued a yellow alert for dense fog across more than 15 districts in Haryana. This includes major areas like Ambala, Hisar, Karnal, Rohtak, and Sonipat. The advisory warns of significant visibility reductions, which could disrupt daily activities, especially transportation. People commuting during early hours are advised to exercise caution.
Impact of Fog on Daily Life
Dense fog can severely impact road, rail, and air traffic. The IMD has advised motorists to use fog lights and drive at reduced speeds. Train schedules may also be affected due to low visibility, leading to delays. For air travelers, airlines have issued guidelines suggesting early check-ins to avoid inconvenience. Farmers, too, have been alerted to protect their crops, as dense fog coupled with colder temperatures can harm standing crops like wheat and mustard.
Rain and Its Role in Changing Weather
The light rainfall experienced in parts of Haryana yesterday has contributed to the cooling of the atmosphere, paving the way for fog formation. Meteorologists predict that similar scattered showers could occur today, which might further intensify the foggy conditions.
