Snow and rain finally heading to J&K this weekend

India Dec 17, 2025

Jammu and Kashmir is set for a change in weather on December 21-22, as a western disturbance rolls in.
Expect heavy snowfall in the mountains and light rain or snow in the valley.
This lines up with the start of Chillai-Kalan, the region's 40 coldest days, when snow and freezing temperatures are most likely.

Why does this matter?

After weeks of dry, foggy weather (and lots of coughs and colds), people are hoping for some relief—even if it means bundling up more.
Night temperatures have been dipping below zero across most places, so expect chilly nights to stick around even after the snow.
If you're planning travel or just want that classic winter vibe, keep an eye out—snowy scenes are on the way!
