Darjeeling’s Sandakphu witnessed its first snowfall of the season on 21 November, much earlier than expected. The unexpected snowfall turned the region into a winter wonderland, thrilling tourists. Locals and visitors were surprised as snow usually graces Darjeeling in December, with last year’s first snowfall recorded on 7 December. Tourism businesses are optimistic about increased visitors as snowfall may intensify with dropping temperatures. While Darjeeling enjoys its frosty charm, Kolkata and other parts of South Bengal continue to experience mild winter temperatures around 20°C, with no significant dip expected soon.
