The dense and prolonged fog with cold weather conditions would continue in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) with no chances of rain during next few days, stated Met Office on Tuesday. Thick fog, after recent wet spell, has enveloped most parts of KP and Punjab.
Met Office informed that due to high concentration of moisture in the atmosphere and low temperatures, the current dense fog will continue for another five days in plain areas of the country. The intensity and duration of fog is very likely to increase during the coming days in the plain areas of KP.
The dense fog in KP (Peshawar, Mardan and Dera Ismail Khan divisions) will persist daily for more than 12 hours (from mid-night to mid day), giving a short sunny window only in afternoon, during the coming days. Due to prolonged foggy conditions and low sunshine, the day-temperatures (maximum), in the fog prone areas of KP have already fallen from normal, and the same trend of day temperatures is expected to prevail in KP.
Due to persistent and prolonged fog, the air and ground traffic is expected to remain disrupt during next five days, and the travellers are therefore advised to avail the window of clear weather during the afternoons. However, the Met Office forecast cold and dry weather in most parts of the country during next 24 hours. Dense fog is likely to continue in plain areas of KP, Punjab and upper Sindh.
