Chilly Winter 2025: As soon as the month of October starts, the change in the weather is clearly visible. Pink cold has knocked. A slight chill is being felt in the morning and evening and people have now started wearing light warm clothes. Snowfall has started in the higher reaches of Himachal Pradesh and Jammu and Kashmir, while the temperature is falling rapidly in the plains of Delhi and North India. In such a situation, it is being estimated that this year winter is going to come earlier than normal.
Cold increased from mountains to plains
Last week, Srinagar received snowfall ahead of schedule, while rain in the plains of Jammu and Kashmir further increased the cold. There is continuous snowfall in the higher reaches of Himachal Pradesh and a major drop in temperature has been recorded due to rain in the lower areas. According to weather experts, this change is due to the decrease in sea surface temperatures in the Pacific Ocean. Due to this, a La Nina situation is being created, which is bringing the cold earlier and more intensely. This is the reason why this time people are feeling shivers in the beginning of October.
