What’s inside:
This article talks about the cold weather in Bihar as winter sets in, with changes in temperatures and challenges due to fog.
Winter is really setting in Bihar now. As December arrives, the chill in the air is noticeable, especially during the mornings and evenings. People are feeling the cold even when the sun is shining, thanks to strong winds. The weather is dry, but the cold is becoming more intense across the state.
In Patna, the cold has become more severe, especially in the early and late hours. The minimum temperatures are dropping continuously, and dense fog is making it hard to see in many areas. The visibility is so poor that walking on the roads feels like pushing through a thick wall of fog. The maximum temperatures are also lower than normal.
Cold waves are expected to arrive after December 15, with nighttime temperatures possibly going down to 5 degrees Celsius or even lower in some places. This means that the cold will feel much harsher, making it very important for everyone to stay warm at night.
The next couple of days will see temperatures remaining below normal, with light to moderate fog in several districts like Champaran, Sitamarhi, and Patna. The weather department predicts that minimum temperatures will range from 5 to 12 degrees, while daytime temperatures will be between 24 to 28 degrees.
Although a slight rise in temperature is expected after December 8, strong westerly winds could still make it feel very chilly. In the last 24 hours, many districts recorded temperatures around 10 degrees. Everyone, especially the elderly and children, is advised to take care when going out in the cold, and drivers should be cautious due to the fog.

- Winter is becoming more intense in Bihar.
- Cold waves are expected after December 15.
