Delhi got off to a misty start on Day 1 of the New Year as a blanket of fog descended, forcing delay of 400 trains and 500 flights.
The mercury dipped to a minimum temperature of 5.7 degrees Celsius, and a maximum of 20 degrees, both a notch below the season’s normal, the weather department said.
Around 500 flights were delayed and eight cancelled as dense fog severely hampered visibility at the Indira Gandhi International airport. The weatherman has predicted similar conditions for Tuesday, with possibility of dense fog in the morning and early evening.
