LUCKNOW: A chilly wave gripped the city on Sunday with minimum temperature dropping 5 levels below customary, also making it the coldest December day in 3 years. Similar conditions are expected at the New Year’s eve with moderate fog in the morning.
As dry icy winds from snowfed mountains persisted to lash the city, minimum temperature dropped to 3.three levels Celsius, 5 levels below customary, in the wee hours on Sunday. The maximum temperature, in spite of sunshine, was once 21.2 levels Celsius, some extent below customary. Moderate fog in the morning resulted in drop in visibility to 500 metres at Amausi airport.
A chilly wave is said when minimum temperatures are 5 or extra levels below customary.
On Monday, shallow to moderate fog is predicted in the morning with maximum and minimum temperatures to be around 21and 5 levels Celsius, respectively. The chilly weather will proceed at the first day of the New Year. However, temperature would possibly upward thrust on Wednesday.
State Met director JP Gupta said a western disturbance lying over Jammu & Kashmir & neighbourhood would possibly have an effect on western Himalayan area from January 1. It will alternate the wind development which might result in upward thrust in temperatures in the state and the city by way of 1-2 levels Celsius. Cold wave conditions will likely be back thereafter.
