However, the minimum temperature was still two degrees above the normal for this time of the year. According to IMD data, the minimum temperature has remained above the normal temperature since October 17.

Moderate fog was seen across the city, with the Palam observatory reporting a minimum visibility of 500 metres at 6.30am. It was 400 metres at Safdarjung at 7am. The lowest visibility in the city was 300 metres on Thursday and zero on Wednesday.

The smog over the past two days also kicked off, for the first time this season, the cyclical phenomenon known as "inversion" where pollutants get trapped close to the surface due to low temperature.
