At the same time, the mercury dropped to 7.6 degrees in Indore, Madhya Pradesh and 8.2 degrees in Bhopal. This sequence has been going on for the last one week.

Many districts in the grip of ‘cold day’ and ‘cold wave’
The Meteorological Department says that conditions like ‘cold day’ and ‘cold wave’ are prevailing in many areas of Madhya Pradesh. There is a ‘cold day’ situation in Anuppur and Balaghat, while many districts of Bhopal, Indore, Ujjain, Sagar and Shahdol divisions are in the grip of cold wave.
What is ‘cold day’?
‘Cold Day’ is declared when the minimum temperature of a place drops below 10 degrees and the day’s maximum temperature also falls by 6.5 degrees or more than normal. That means both day and night are very cold, as is happening in Anuppur and Balaghat right now.
According to the Meteorological Department, the effect of cold will increase further in the second week of November. Its impact will be most visible in Gwalior-Chambal division, because the icy winds of North India are directly affecting there.
