“Mainly Dry is expected till December 14. Light to moderate snow/rain in likely at scattered places of J&K on December 15,” an official of the meteorological department here, adding, “There is no forecast for major snowfall till 20th December in both J&K and Ladakh.” He said that there would be warmer days and colder nights in J&K and Ladakh till December 14.

Meanwhile, the MeT official said that Srinagar, the summer capital of J&K, recorded minimum of minus 2.1°C against previous night’s minus 0.4°C. On December 1 the mercury fell as low as minus 2.5°C in Srinagar which was lowest temperature recorded this season in the city so far.
