Dense Fog Disrupts Travel in Delhi and Agra During Winter Months
IN · Published Sep 15, 2026
Radiation fog is a recurring issue in Delhi and Agra during late December and January, particularly in the early morning hours from 6:00 AM to 10:30 AM.
This dense fog significantly reduces visibility, often obscuring landmarks like the Taj Mahal and causing disruptions to travel schedules.

Impact & Risks

The dense fog poses risks to transportation and tourism in the region. Train delays can disrupt itineraries, while reduced visibility on highways increases the likelihood of accidents. Tourists visiting the Taj Mahal during early mornings may find the monument obscured by fog, impacting their experience and photography opportunities. Additionally, the cold temperatures during this period, ranging from 7°C to 23°C, require travellers to dress warmly, especially during early mornings and evenings.
