Winter takes a detour: Shimla basks in sunshine as snowy December goes missing

Shimla, often dubbed the Queen of Hills, is known for its snow-covered landscapes during December. This year, however, winter seems to have taken a pause.
Instead of frost and snowfall, the hill town has been enjoying bright sunshine and unusually mild temperatures, catching both residents and visitors by surprise. Daytime conditions remain pleasant, with temperatures hovering well above the seasonal average.
