Shillong experienced the coldest day of the season on January 18 when the barometer touched 0.9 degrees Celsius.

Thanks to an unscheduled cloud burst on Jan 17 and 18, the life in the city was somewhat affected. Throughout these murky days a chilly breeze constantly blew with the bit of a pin-prick. The unbearable cold forced the people indoors. Streets and market places were almost deserted early in the evening. Offices had relatively thin attendance.

In many areas heavy frosting was reported. Meadows, fields and rooftops remained covered with frost in the mornings.
