Jammu and Kashmir, Apr 6: The heavy downpour has resulted in waterlogging and traffic disruptions in several areas. In Srinagar, the Dal Lake has risen above the danger mark, leading to concerns about flooding in nearby residential areas.
Jammu and Kashmir witnessed another day of heavy rainfall on Tuesday, with most places across the region recording below-normal temperatures. According to the local weather department, the mercury is likely to remain low for the next few days.
The continuous rainfall is a result of a western disturbance passing over the region. The authorities have advised people to take necessary precautions and stay indoors during the heavy rains.
This latest spell of rainfall is expected to provide some relief to the farmers in the region, who have been grappling with dry weather conditions for the past few months. However, the authorities are keeping a close eye on the situation to prevent any damage from flooding or landslides.
