Sudden Weather Shift at Katra: Dense Fog Blankets Vaishno Devi Bhawan Amid Ongoing Rain and Snow in J&K

KATRA March 15, 2026 — The holy town of Katra experienced a dramatic shift in weather today as a thick blanket of fog enveloped the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Bhawan area.

Following the ongoing spell of rain and snowfall across the Jammu and Kashmir region, the shrine area was transformed into a picturesque landscape, draped in a mystical layer of white mist.

This sudden meteorological change has turned the surroundings into a mesmerizing sight, significantly dropping the temperature and creating a pleasant atmosphere for the thousands of pilgrims currently visiting.

Despite the limited visibility caused by the heavy fog, devotees arriving for the darshan are reportedly enjoying the pleasant and “suhavna” weather, capturing the enchanting beauty of the Trikuta Hills in its wintry bloom.
