Cold wave conditions abated in Rajasthan as mercury rose by one to three degrees at most places in the state during the night.
Minimum temperatures varied between 8.9 degree Celsius and 15 degree Celsius at most places including Churu, Ganganagar, Jaipur, Kota, Chittorgarh, Udaipur, Jodhpur, Bikaner, Jaisalmer and Barmer, a MeT department official said.
Hill station Mount Abu was the coldest place in the state with a minimum temperature of 5 degree Celsius last night, the official said.
However, despite normal weather conditions in Rajasthan, movements of 14 passenger trains in the state from adjoining states of Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Delhi and Madhya Pradesh were affected.
The trains were running late by 35 minutes to 9 hours and 45 minutes due to fog and mist, a NWR spokesman said.
Three trains were rescheduled due to delayed services, he said.
According to the forecast of the MeT department, a fresh western disturbance is likely to hit the state in next 24 hours and night temperatures may dip with light to moderate showers at some places in north-west of the state.
