Northern winds pushed temperatures down by 3.7°C in Indore, making it the coldest night of the season at 12 °C and breaking early‑November records.
A brisk northerly wind swept across Indore on Tuesday night, driving the minimum temperature down by 3.7 °C to 12.7 °C. Meteorological data released by the India Meteorological Department confirms that this is the lowest night‑time reading recorded for the current winter season.
The sudden dip has already eclipsed temperature norms for the first week of November, setting a new early‑season low that surpasses figures from previous years. Experts note that such a rapid fall is unusual for this period, attributing it to a strong cold front moving from the Himalayas.
Residents reported feeling intense chill and increased use of heating appliances across the city. Forecasts suggest the cold spell may linger for a few more days, with temperatures expected to stay near the 13‑15 °C range before gradually rising later in the week.
