The winter chill is now missing in Odisha as the minimum (night) temperature is witnessing an upward trend for the past couple of days. Though it is providing the much needed respite from the intense cold wave conditions, dense fog conditions is causing numerous problems for commuters in several parts of the State.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Monday predicted that there will be no significant change in the minimum temperature during the next three days. However, the minimum temperature will gradually fall by 2 to 4 degree Celsius thereafter.

On Monday night, Titilagarh recorded the lowest minimum temperature of 14.3 degree Celsius.
