Many places in Jammu & Kashmir are expected to receive snowfall wherein one or two places could even receive heavy snow or rain.
Rain and snow would also commence at a few places over Himachal Pradesh and chances of heavy snowfall or rain at one or two places cannot be ruled out during the next 48 hours. The rainfall over Himachal Pradesh would boost the soil conditions in the area for growing wheat.
