Srinagar, Oct 25 : The world famous ski resort of Gulmarg and other upper reaches in the Kashmir valley experienced snowfall Sunday afternoon resulting in more chill forcing people to wear warms cloth.
The Met department had predicted rain, snowfall and thundershowers in the valley on Sunday which would follow dry weather from tomorrow till end of this month.
However, the met had predicted dry weather from Monday till October 31, a big relief to people living in hilly areas who had yet to collect their apple crops and make preparation for winter.
Reports of very light snowfall was also received from other heights in the north Kashmir, including at Line of Control (LoC), where security forces remained on alert to foil any infiltration attempt by militants waiting at launch pads to sneak into this side before heavy snowfall.
The holy Amarnath cave shrine in south Kashmir Himalayas and adjoining areas also received light snowfall. This year the annual pilgrimage was postponed due to COVID-19.
