According to the Meteorological Department, extreme cold was predicted in most of the states of India. Due to this, not only the day but also the night temperature may drop rapidly. According to the department, these jet stream winds running at a speed of 250 kilometers per hour will continue to blow 12 kilometers above sea level for the next five days.

Meteorological Department scientist Divesh Patel says that due to jet stream winds, cold will start increasing in the plains. He says that due to this, melting will not only increase in India, especially in the plains, but due to the continuous presence of jet stream winds, there may be a drop in the minimum temperature. Whereas melting will increase due to cold winds blowing during the day. According to the estimates of the Meteorological Department, these jet stream winds will continue to flow in the atmosphere at the same speed from Wednesday to Sunday, which will have a direct impact on the plains of North India.
