Winter Chill To Grip Uttar Pradesh From November 16, Temperatures May Fall 5°C As Lucknow Battles Smog

Uttar Pradesh is bracing for a significant shift in weather from November 16, as cold winter conditions are expected to sweep across the region. Meteorologists predict temperatures to plummet by 3-5 degrees Celsius, leading to chilly mornings and evenings. Senior meteorologist Atul Kumar Singh attributes the impending chill to an active western disturbance near Kashmir, which could influence the weather patterns in the northwestern Himalayan region.

Although the disturbance may not directly impact Uttar Pradesh, the rainfall and snowfall in nearby hilly areas may intensify cold northwesterly winds, affecting the plains. This weather change is anticipated to be felt in Lucknow and other parts of the state, with both daytime and nighttime temperatures declining. Currently, Lucknow is grappling with deteriorating air quality, as a smog layer shrouded the city on Friday morning, driving the Air Quality Index (AQI) to 269, classified as 'Poor'.

Areas such as Aliganj, Tal Katora, and Lalbagh recorded AQI levels of 269, 260, and 201 respectively, placing them in the Orange Zone.
