New Delhi: A layer of shallow fog engulfed the national capital this morning, resulting in delay of 26 north-bound rail services and rescheduling of four others.

Flight operations, however, were normal, according to the official website of Indira Gandhi International Airport.

The visibility was recorded at 800 metres at 5:30 AM.

Three hours later, it dropped to 500 metres, a MeT department official said.

The minimum temperature settled at 12.5 degrees Celsius, five notches above season’s average. At 8:30 AM, the relative humidity was recorded at 95 percent.

“While 26 trains were running behind scheduled by several hours, no train service was cancelled,” a railway official said.
