KUALA LUMPUR: It was a cold night along with morning fog for city dwellers here and also for several other cities on the peninsula, as temperatures dropped to 22 ° C, the lowest in months.
A similar low temperature was also recorded on December 16.
Both on Saturday and yesterday, the fog lasted until 11am in Klang and only dissipated as the day got warmer.
The cloudy sky left many wondering if the mist had returned.
Most areas of the Klang Valley were soaked because it rained practically all day yesterday.
A weather.my review showed that the temperature in Kuala Lumpur dropped to 22 ° C while the highest was 25 ° C throughout the day.
In Pahang, the timeanddate.com log showed that the temperature in Kuantan was at 22 ° C as of 8am yesterday.
With the rains reported, the cold snap lasted throughout the day and is expected to last until today.
Malaysia is currently dominated by cold weather due to the northeast monsoon season, which is commonly known as the “winter monsoon” and also as the La Niña phenomenon.
According to the Malaysian Meteorological Department, cloudy skies and continuous rainfall are common during this period as far as the peninsula is concerned.
Temperatures will drop and lead to higher humidity, which can lead to fogs and potential flooding in low-lying, flood-prone areas.
The cold and rainy season will possibly continue until the beginning of February and the monsoon season is expected to end in March.
The department warned that continuous heavy rains over several days can result in flooding in low-lying, flood-prone areas, and the risk of flooding may worsen if heavy rains coincide with high tide.
Additionally, strong and continuous winds from the northeast can cause rough seas and large waves in the waters of the South China Sea.
