Scientist Sunit Das of the Regional Meteorological Centre, Guwahati said, “We have a centre in Nagaland that was set up some years ago. It never reported snowfall in the state.” Some locals, however, said the state indeed witnessed snowfall on a few occasions but those occurred many years ago.

What a wonderful gift for the people of Luvishe Village under Aghunato sub-division of Zunheboto district to experience snowfall after 37 years.
