Rain and snow over Hills

The heavy spells of rain and snow over the trio hilly states of North India have ended on a surplus note for the month of January. Major contribution came  from January 20 up till January 23 that took precipitation percentage up by a humongous figure.

Below table will give a clear understanding of the precipitation value in terms of rain and snow:

This year Jammu and Kashmir and Uttarakhand have recorded surplus precipitation values at 46% and 47%, respectively. Whereas, for the state of Himachal Pradesh it is normal but on a negative side at 11%.

January, February and March are the rainiest months wherein the snowfall is at its peak during the first two months. It rains the most in March followed by February and then January. It is said that the snowfall during the months of January and February are basically the lifelines for the upcoming pre-monsoon season.

Looks like the month of February too would be as promising as January.Banihal,BhaderwahandBatote in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir have already witnessed heavy rain and snow. Seems like moderate to heavy rain activities will be seen in Jammu and Kashmir, moderate in Himachal Pradesh whereas light rain activities will be seen in Uttarakhand.

By February 2 and 3, the rain and snow activities over the trio hilly states would start receding. However, the activities would once again pick up pace when a new Western Disturbance would affect the hills of North around February 4. The activities would gain strength from February 5 up till February 7. Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand would receive heavy rains on February 5, February 6 and February 7, respectively. As the system will keep shifting eastward, the activities will accordingly start to recede. It is expected that by February 8, rains would recede, and weather will then soon find clearance.
