“Dense to very dense fog will continue to prevail in the belt. There will be an improvement on Dec 29 because of a western disturbance that will bring fresh snowfall in Jammu and Kashmir, Leh and Himachal Pradesh. There will be drizzle in north Punjab on Dec 29,” he had said.
From December 28 onwards there will be a significant improvement as the cold wave will go due to western disturbance, Jenamani stated.
