Minimum temperature in Delhi dropped to 5.7 degrees Celsius but it is likely to rise over the next two days due to a change in the wind direction. IMD predicted that the national capital will see shallow fog this morning and light rain is likely to



occur.
 
Weather department said dense to very dense fog is very likely to occur in the morning at a few places in Uttar Pradesh today and cold day conditions are also very likely to prevail at isolated places over the state.
 
Cold weather conditions continued to persist at many places in Haryana and Punjab with temperatures hovering below the normal limits.
 
Intense cold wave conditions persisted in Kashmir, even as the minimum temperatures increased marginally across the valley.
