Dharamshala: The cold wave continues in Himachal Pradesh with several parts in the state including Dharamshal witnessing a minimum temperature of zero to one degree.

The Intermittent rainfall and dense fog have enveloped the Dhauladhar mountains, which have received fresh snowfall. Tourists in the region are eagerly awaiting snowfall in the town. In areas like Naddi, Dharamkot, Bhagsunag, and McLeodganj, the minimum temperature has dropped to zero to one degree Celsius, while the daytime temperature hovers around four to five degrees Celsius.

“It’s very cold here, and we are hoping to see snowfall. It’s chilling as our hands and feet are frozen. We are wearing multiple layers of clothes and still need to trek to Dharamkot. The rain has made the paths slippery, and since our hotel room doesn’t have a heater, it’s even more challenging. However, finding some fire around here is a relief for us.” Shreya, a tourist said. 


Another tourist, Siddharth, shared his experience, saying, “It’s extremely cold here. As tourists, we come to explore, but the cold often keeps us indoors. Still, we are waiting for snow, which will enhance the experience. We came prepared with proper winter clothing, but those unaware of these conditions might face difficulties.”


Shimla and the upper regions of Himachal Pradesh have also been reeling under heavy rainfall and snowfall over the past 24 hours, causing landslides and significant disruptions to daily life. Continuous rain has melted snow in Shimla and its surrounding areas, further dropping temperatures and intensifying the bone-chilling cold.
