Delhiites woke up to light rain showers on Friday morning as the national capital continues to witness dense fog and cold wave conditions. The rain began in the early hours of Friday, with showers leading
to traffic slowdowns in many regions.
According to the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), although the widespread rain in Delhi-NCR remains unlikely for now, cold wave and dense fog conditions are expected to persist, keeping temperatures below the average.
Authorities have advised residents to remain cautious, especially during morning hours, when reduced visibility could pose a challenge to commuters.
