Bitterly cold spell tightens grip on Kashmir

On Tuesday morning, Kashmir experienced foggy and cold weather conditions. The minimum temperature dropped below the freezing point in several places, including Srinagar city.

The Meteorological Centre in Srinagar predicts dry weather for Jammu and Kashmir, with isolated morning fog likely to persist in the Kashmir division over the next 24 hours.

Kashmir weather, the independent weather forecaster, suggests that the current foggy conditions are expected to diminish in the coming days as a fresh weak Western Disturbance is anticipated to affect Jammu and Kashmir on Thursday.

The minimum temperature in Kashmir plains is expected to remain below the freezing point for two more days.

Between 25 & 30 November, two more weak Western Disturbances are anticipated, which may result in partly cloudy to overcast weather conditions.
