The cold weather and dense fog are causing disruptions in daily life, including reduced visibility and flight diversions. Farmers in Purvanchal are advised to ensure proper drainage in fields to protect rabi crops such as wheat, gram, peas, and mustard from waterlogging. The harvested paddy crop in rural areas of Lucknow has already suffered damage due to excessive rainfall. The Chief Minister has directed district magistrates to assess crop damage and provide immediate compensation to affected farmers.
