Delhi has been gripped by severe winter conditions, recording its coldest night in three years. The city's primary weather station, Safdarjung, registered a minimum temperature of 2.9 degrees Celsius on January 15, 2026. According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD) records, the last time Delhi experienced a lower minimum temperature was on January 18, 2023, when the mercury dipped to 2.6 degrees Celsius, validating the 'coldest in three years' claim for Safdarjung. Other weather stations in the National Capital Region (NCR) also reported significantly low temperatures; for instance, Palam recorded 2.3°C, Ayanagar 2.7°C, and Lodhi Road 3.4°C. This frigid spell is accompanied by dense to very dense fog, which has severely reduced visibility across the city, particularly at Palam airport where visibility dropped to around 50 meters, and Safdarjung recorded 100 meters. The IMD has confirmed the persistence of cold wave conditions across Delhi and other parts of North India, issuing an 'orange alert' due to the ongoing severe cold. These harsh weather conditions have disrupted daily life, affecting transportation and prompting advisories for residents. The cold wave is expected to continue for several more days before a slight relief is anticipated.
