New Delhi | December 11, 2025: The winter chill has officially taken a severe turn across India today. As we step into mid-December, a Yellow Alert for Cold Wave has been sounded for multiple states in North and Central India. Meanwhile, the Southern peninsula is facing a dual challenge—unexpected cold winds in Telangana and fresh rainfall warnings for Tamil Nadu.
From the freezing plains of Punjab to the wet coasts of Chennai, here is your comprehensive weather forecast for today, Thursday, December 11.
1. North & Central India: Bone-Chilling Cold & Dense Fog
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a significant alert as temperatures plummet below normal.
- Cold Wave Alert: A sharp drop in temperature is being felt today. A 'Cold Wave' warning is in effect for Punjab, West Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Odisha, and Vidarbha.
- Fog Warning: Visibility is a major concern this morning. Dense to very dense fog has blanketed parts of East Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh, and Odisha. In the Northeast, states like Assam and Manipur are also struggling with low visibility.
- Delhi Weather: The national capital is seeing sunny skies but with a biting chill. The minimum temperature has settled around 7°C to 9°C. However, the bigger worry is the Air Quality Index (AQI), which remains in the 'Very Poor' category (300+), making the air hazardous for outdoor activities.
2. South India: Rain in Chennai, Shivers in Telangana
The weather in South India is showing a rare contrast of rain and cold.
- Chennai Rain Update: The Northeast Monsoon is active again. The IMD predicts moderate rainfall for Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, and Karaikal starting today through December 16. Chennai will see partly cloudy skies with light spells of rain in some areas.
- Telangana Freeze: In a surprising turn, a Severe Cold Wave Alert has been issued for 7 districts in Telangana. Places like Kohir (Sangareddy) have recorded a shocking low of 5.6°C.
