Cold wave intensifies across Madhya Pradesh, with night temperatures dropping below 15°C in 20 cities.
A severe cold wave has intensified across Madhya Pradesh, causing night temperatures to fall below 15°C in 20 cities, according to the latest weather update from the state meteorological department. The temperature dip has been observed in major urban centers such as Bhopal, Indore, Gwalior, and Jabalpur, as well as in smaller towns across the state.
Meteorologists attribute the drop to a high-pressure system over the northern plains, which has brought clear skies and strong winds, allowing heat to escape during the night. Residents in affected areas have reported increased use of heaters and blankets, and local authorities have urged people to stay indoors and keep warm.
The state government has issued a precautionary advisory, urging citizens to check weather forecasts regularly and to take necessary measures to protect vulnerable populations, including the elderly and children, from the harsh cold. No major disruptions have been reported yet, but officials remain vigilant as the cold front is expected to linger for several more days.
