Snowfall in northern India has driven night temperatures below 15°C across 20 cities in Madhya Pradesh, including Bhopal, with forecasts warning of a further 2°C fall in the coming five days.
The recent snowfall over the Himalayan foothills has sent a cold front sweeping into Madhya Pradesh. Meteorological data shows that night-time temperatures have already slipped below 15°C in about twenty cities, with Bhopal among the affected areas.
The state’s weather department warned that the chill will intensify over the next five days, potentially lowering minimum temperatures by an additional two degrees Celsius. Residents are being advised to take precautionary measures, especially those with health conditions sensitive to cold.
Experts attribute the sharp dip to strong northerly winds expected to dominate after November 15, which will bring a more pronounced cold wave across central India. Authorities are monitoring the situation and stand ready to issue further advisories if conditions worsen.
