Himachal Pradesh : Shimla, Manali,Dalhousie cut-off by season's first snowfall
Trees felled by the heavy snowfall snapped electric wires and blocked roads disrupting movement of vehicular traffic in many areas, including National Highway-21 near Shimla making the state capital inaccessible by road.
The intense chill in the weather brought the mercury down to a freezing level as snow lay heaped more than one foot on many roads.
The snowfall followed rain in the lower areas of Himachal Pradesh, including Dharamsala, Solan, Nahan, Una and Mandi.
According to the weather office, the weather is likely to remain the same for the next few days with the likelihood of more snowfall.
