Delhi Weather Updates: North India is expecting one more winter twist, and believe us, it is thrilling. The western disturbances are coming in like they are the landlords, while the cyclonic systems are giving their own touch, and the cold is now officially in beast mode. Nature’s mood swing is felt all over, from the icy mountains to the bustling plains.
And What About Delhi-NCR, Punjab, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh? They are almost on the weather’s hit list. Cold wave alerts, frozen fingers, and people hunting for sunlight as if it were gold, this is what you can expect in the coming week.
On the other hand, the highland areas of Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, and Jammu & Kashmir are experiencing something completely different. Freezing conditions have made even the simplest chores feel like a major challenge. Morning tea gets frozen quicker than you can drink it, and every step you take outside feels like a survival show competition.
Winter is not only here, but it is also performing live, front-row, and without intervals.
Why The Weather Is Changing: The Real Drama Behind Western Disturbances
Who do you think is responsible for the sudden winter plot twist in North India? The culprit is none other than the hyperactive western disturbances—they are working very hard. At present, one major system is over north Punjab at an altitude of 3.1 to 4.5 km and creating a cyclonic circulation that is affecting northwest Uttar Pradesh. In the meantime, another disturbance is coming down from the upper atmosphere and will soon be raining and snowing on the hills. Thus, if you are in the higher areas of Uttarakhand, you can take this as your early warning: winter is about to become a little more dramatic.
