In addition, light north westerly winds blew over the region today, leading to a cold day. According to the airport's hourly visibility data, Safdarjung and Palam experienced dense fog between 4.30 and 7 a.m. until 9.30 and 11 a.m., respectively.

It is the longest fog day over Delhi this season. Fog was only able to cover the main city till evening at Safdarjung and IGI Palam could only reach 1,000 meters at 3.30pm.

The IMD reported that today was the longest foggy day over Delhi this season. Due to the lack of sunlight, it also caused a cold day, with winds of 8-12 kmph from the northwest around noon.
