Cold wave alert, travellers worried 

December 7, 2025

It was being said that this year’s heavy rainfall wouldn’t hit until the end of November. While weather experts predicted that this year’s extraordinary rainfall would be followed by normal rainfall, and a wave would follow, the weather changed drastically as soon as December began. This change is such that the rainfall is increasing, but this is a dry season without rain. Because of this, adults and children are seen coughing in hospitals. According to meteorologists, the extremely dry season without rain will continue for the time being.

Yes, there are chances of hail and snowfall in Himachal Pradesh, including Chatra, Kullu, Kangra, Kinnaur, and Lahaul-Spiti. However, the impact of La-Nauna is being felt not only in Punjab and India, but across the world. Therefore, the winter has already begun. Punjab is experiencing severe cold. On Thursday, Adampur in Jalandhar was really cold with a temperature of 120°C. Despite sunny days in Punjab, cold nights are showing their effects. For the first time in these days, temperatures have dropped to 3 degrees in three major cities: Adampur, Faridkot, and Bathinda.

There is no chance of rain at the moment. The temperature in Lahaul-Spiti reached -7.4 degrees. Such unusual changes create snow-covered glaciers, but the threat of slow warming is also increasing. Environmental pollution poses no real threat, and thus, the glaciers are turning into pipalkar fences. The Pangam murder case has also been exacerbated by the dry and dense fog this season. Mandi Gobindgarh recorded the worst AQI of 257. Three vehicles collided with each other, seriously injuring three people, after a Canter applied its brakes in the fog near Vyas Pind on the Jalandhar-Pathankot highway. Air services have also been disrupted. IndiGo flights are being cancelled across the country. While the reason for this is being attributed to the lack of pilots’ rest and the reduced number of pilots, the pressure of fog and mist in the weather is also disrupting other flights. The same effect is being felt on railway services. Currently, dozens of trains across the country are either being cancelled or running late. There are reasons why, whether it’s railways or aviation, transportation is not smooth these days.
