Jaipur, Dec 22 || Dense fog enveloped several districts across Rajasthan, reducing visibility to ten metres in many areas on Monday.
On the outskirts of Jaipur, the visibility was just 10 metres. Similar conditions were reported from border districts such as Jaisalmer and Sri Ganganagar.
The prevailing fog, coupled with the impact of an active Western Disturbance over North India, led to unusual temperature patterns across the state.
While minimum (night) temperatures are rising, daytime temperatures have dropped significantly, making days colder than nights in several regions.
On Sunday, maximum temperatures in many cities fell below 20 degrees Celsius.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a severe cold warning from Tuesday, forecasting a further dip in temperatures.
