Mohali: Snowfall in the mountains has brought a noticeable chill to Punjab and Chandigarh, with temperatures expected to remain cool during the coming days. Dry weather is forecast from October 18 to October 22, with no rain expected during this period.
The change in weather is likely to make mornings and evenings colder across the region. However, sunshine during the daytime is expected to provide some relief from the chill, leading to a contrast between daytime and nighttime temperatures.
Bathinda recorded a minimum temperature of 13 degrees Celsius, according to the report. The drop in temperatures reflects the seasonal transition as colder conditions begin to become more noticeable in Punjab.
Chandigarh also experienced sunny conditions on Sunday morning, with vehicles seen moving along roads under clear skies. Despite the sunshine, the influence of snowfall in the mountain regions is contributing to cooler weather across the plains.
Residents can expect generally clear skies over the next five days, although temperatures may vary between districts. People heading outdoors early in the morning or late in the evening may experience colder conditions compared with the afternoon.
The forecast indicates that rainfall is unlikely between October 18 and October 22. However, local weather conditions and temperatures can change, so residents are advised to follow updated forecasts issued by the India Meteorological Department.
The arrival of cooler weather marks a seasonal shift in the region, with mornings and evenings expected to become increasingly chilly while daytime sunshine continues to keep conditions relatively comfortable.
