Haryana Braces for Intense Cold Wave, Dense Fog & Poor AQI

• Haryana faces severe cold, falling temperatures, and dense fog in northern districts like Ambala, Karnal, Kaithal, Kurukshetra, Hisar, and Sirsa.
• Narnaul recorded the lowest temperature at 3.0°C on Jan 5; frost formation expected in fields including Mahendragarh.
• Dr. Madan Khichad predicts dry weather until Jan 8 with cold north/northwesterly winds dropping night temperatures further.
• IMD forecasts dense to very dense fog and cold wave conditions to persist until Jan 7-8, with minimum temperatures around 4-8°C.
• AQI levels deteriorated significantly across Haryana, with Faridabad at 301 and Delhi at 294, posing health risks.
