Chilly November night in Chandigarh since 2020

India Nov 14, 2025

Chandigarh saw temperatures drop to 8.7°C on the night of November 13-14—the chilliest November night since 2020 and well below the usual for this time of year.

Dry northwesterly winds are responsible for the cold snap

While Chandigarh was shivering, nearby hill stations like Dharamshala and Kasauli were actually a bit warmer.
The cold snap is thanks to dry northwesterly winds blowing in from the mountains, which are expected to stick around for a few more days.
Even with the chill, air quality has stayed moderate (AQI: 103), so you can still breathe easy if you're heading out.
