From January 4-5, he said, there is possibility of generally cloudy and dry weather over plains and “very light” snow over “isolated extreme higher reaches”. From January 6-7, mainly dry weather is expected. “Overall, there is no significant weather activity till January 7,” he added.

Generally cloudy weather is expected with possibility of light rain/snow over isolated higher reaches on January 8, he said.
