These rain and snow activities can be attributed to the Western Disturbance over Jammu and Kashmir and adjoining areas. Along with this, its induced cyclonic circulation is over Haryana and adjoining regions which has caused rain over the lower reaches.
Now, as per weathermen at Skymet Weather, these activities will continue for another 24 hours over eastern parts of Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and some areas of Uttarakhand. However, the weather activity will not be as intense.
