Himachal Pradesh’s scenic spots like Manali, Shimla, and Kufri experienced their first light snowfalls, while regions such as Lahaul-Spiti saw decent accumulations.

Uttarakhand also enjoyed light rain showers in places like Dehradun and Nainital. Meanwhile, sporadic rains touched the plains, including Punjab, Haryana, Delhi, and Uttar Pradesh.
