Chandigarh just had its coldest November nights in 14 years

India Dec 01, 2025

Chandigarh shivered through its chilliest November since 2011, with average night temperatures dropping to 10.4°C and a low of 7.5°C recorded on November 30—3.4 degrees below normal.

Why is it so cold, and why does it matter?

Cool north-westerly winds and cleaner air have kept fog and smog away, letting more heat escape at night.
Daytime highs also dipped slightly below average, while rain was almost non-existent this month.
The dry, cold spell means people are bundling up earlier than usual.
