MP Dec 18 Weather Update: State To Experience Relief From Biting Cold For The Next 4-5 Days

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): People in Madhya Pradesh can expect some relief from the biting cold over the next 4 to 5 days, according to the Meteorological Department.

From Wednesday onwards, both day and night temperatures are likely to rise slightly. However, fog may still affect some districts. On Wednesday morning, dense fog covered parts of the Gwalior-Chambal region.

Weather expert V.S. Yadav explained that cold wave and cold day conditions have ended for now. Temperatures are expected to rise for the next few days, reducing the intensity of the cold.

However, after an active western disturbance causes snowfall in North India, cold northern winds will return, bringing back freezing conditions to the state.

Fog Expected
Dense fog is likely to remain in Gwalior, Datia, Morena, and Bhind. Parts of Shivpuri may also experience light fog.
