It’s, however, not for the first time in recent years that Shimla is shivering in May. Three years back in 2023, Shimla endured a much colder early May - maximum temperatures were below normal by 6-11 degree Celsius and minimum by up to five degree Celsius.
The highest maximum May temperature ever logged by Shimla is 32.4 degree Celsius, recorded on May 27, 2010. The lowest minimum May temperature in Shimla is 5.8 degree Celsius, recorded in May 9, 2018.
The cold conditions are likely to persist for a few days more as there’s forecast for rain and thunderstorm.
