The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) recently released observations indicating the presence of broken fog and low clouds over several states in northern and central India. The report, specifically referring to the day microphysics at 03 UTC, highlights the affected regions as Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, south Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, north Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, north Jharkhand, and West Bengal.
The phenomenon of broken fog and low clouds, as captured by the IMD’s microphysics data, has implications for weather conditions and visibility in these areas. Fog and low clouds can have significant impacts on transportation, particularly air and road travel, as reduced visibility poses challenges for commuters.
In the northern states of Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, and Uttarakhand, the presence of broken fog and low clouds may lead to localized weather disruptions, affecting daily activities and necessitating caution while navigating through these regions. Similarly, the states of Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, and West Bengal are also experiencing this weather phenomenon, requiring residents and travelers to stay informed about changing weather conditions.
The IMD’s continuous monitoring and reporting play a crucial role in providing timely information to the public, meteorological agencies, and relevant authorities. This enables better preparedness and response strategies to mitigate any potential disruptions caused by adverse weather conditions.
