Rains lash J&K parts, more rain showers expected

Srinagar, Aug 30: Jammu and Kashmir parts received rainfall during the past 24 hours while the weatherman has forecasted more rain showers in Kashmir region.

“Today, rain showers can occur in many areas of Jammu and Kashmir, especially in Kashmir region,” a private weather forecaster said, adding that the intensity overall will be higher in north Kashmir parts (particularly Kupwara) compared to other parts.

There is a possibility of light to moderate rainfall, he said, adding that due to lower temperatures, light snowfall can occur over extreme higher reaches (elevation > 4000 m).

Intense showers and cloudbursts can’t be ruled out, he said, adding that except for a few parts, mostly dry weather is expected tomorrow.
