“Snowflakes Dance: Himachal Pradesh Under Orange Alert for Enchanting Snowfall!

The regional meteorological center in Shimla has painted the hill state in shades of orange with an alert for anticipated snowfall over the next two days. Brace yourselves for a picturesque spectacle as the lower Himalayan regions might also witness thunderstorms, lightning, and hailstorms until 6 February. The snowfall since January 31 has painted the landscape in white, but it’s not all joy as around 485 roads, including 4 national highways, remain closed, creating a snowy maze for travelers.
