Snowfall was witnessed in several parts of Jammu and Kashmir over the weekend.
Now the weather condition has improved and the cyclonic circulation over Punjab is gradually weakening. Isolated places may receive light rainfall activities but most parts of North India will observe dry weather conditions.
We can expect a little rise in temperatures over the hills as well as plains of Punjab, Haryana, Delhi-NCR, North Rajasthan and West Uttar Pradesh.
