Shallow fog in city, 34 trains running late

New Delhi: The city woke up to a misty morning with the minimum temperature recorded at 11.2 degrees Celsius, three notches above the season’s average, even as poor visibility in northern states delayed the movement of 34 trains.

While the minimum was nearly five degrees more compared to yesterday, which was the coldest day of the season, it will dip again in the coming days, the met office said.

“There was mist and shallow fog in the early morning hours. The maximum temperature is expected to be around 25 degrees Celsius,” a weather official said.

Visibility was recorded at 1200 and 800 metres at 5.30 AM and 8.30 AM respectively which did not disrupt air traffic.

However, 34 north-bound trains were running late and seven have been rescheduled, a railways spokesperson said.

Yesterday, the minimum temperature was 6.6 degrees Celsius.
