The national capital woke up to near-zero visibility as dense fog shrouded Delhi and adjacent areas. With the mercury plummeting to 6 degrees Celsius, the cold wave persists, compelling the homeless to seek refuge in night shelters. Transport, including trains, faced delays due to low visibility. The India Meteorological Department forecasts "dense to very dense" fog until December 29. Changes in weather patterns are anticipated after December 30, offering relief from the chilling conditions. Amid the cold wave, Uttar Pradesh alters school timings, and a 15-day winter vacation is declared from December 31.
