"Central and Southern Pakistan will be cold again from Tuesday"-cold conditions have started, and Karachi has reached the predicted 9c, and Sukkur is 2c away from the 3c estimated, maybe tomorrow.
Cold will creep into Northern India plains from Tuesday night, in fact, expecting Delhi's 3c tonite itself! Delhi, after a foggy day, saw the high managing only 14c on Tuesday. Thick fog expected Wed morning.
Further fall in night temperatures tomorrow in Haryana, Punjab and North Rajasthan.
Other city night temperatures estimated in the weekly forecast should not become difficult to reach.
yesterday's Snowfall in Vaishno Devi..see video here.

Satyen: week end will be of course dry, but slightly cold.
I am not sure whether fog started forming during the overnite hours or not but when I wake up at 6 am I saw a thick fog.It was difficult for me to see nearby buildings.Visibility has been reduced to 150-200 meters.Fog lasted till 8 am. 3years ago when I was in the school that time I have seen such type of thick fog.Such type of fog occured rarely in Surat.
Srinagar looks beautiful covered with snowfall
PWP: Nature at its best in the North !
