How the Snow Chance Is Worked Out
Each destination's forecast is refreshed every 3 hours. The label is a simple rule of thumb, not an official warning:
- Snow: snowfall or snow showers are in the forecast.
- High: rain or showers with nights at or below 2°C, so snow is likely on the higher slopes.
- Medium: rain or showers with nights at or below 5°C.
- Frost, dry: freezing but dry, so expect frost and icy roads rather than snow.
For official warnings, follow the India Meteorological Department's Meteorological Centre in Dehradun, which issues district-wise alerts for snow and heavy rain.
Roads That Close First in Snow
| Route | What happens in heavy snow |
|---|---|
| Joshimath – Auli (16 km) | Upper stretch closes until cleared; 4x4 with chains for a day or two after |
| Ukhimath – Chopta – Gopeshwar | Often blocked around Chopta for days in January |
| Mussoorie – Dhanaulti – Kanatal | Icy shaded stretches and long jams on snow weekends |
| Chakrata – Lokhandi | Upper road can close after fresh snow |
| Thal / Kalamuni pass – Munsiyari | Kalamuni pass can close for days |
| Uttarkashi – Harsil – Gangotri | Closed beyond Harsil all winter |
Check road conditions before you set out, and save the emergency numbers.
Snow Day Safety
- Drive in daylight. Shaded bends turn to black ice after sunset.
- Carry snow chains or hire a local driver who has them.
- Keep fuel, water, snacks and a charged phone. Jams on snow days can last hours.
- Never use charcoal or gas heaters in a closed room.
