The weather of Vaishno Devi has remained dry and clear for the last five to six days. The last snow spell that occurred over the holy shrine was on January 22-23, all thanks to the Western Disturbance that has been affecting the Western Himalayan region.
Since then, the weather has remained dry. While a series of Western Disturbances affected the Western Himalayan region, they were not strong enough to give snow or rain over the holy shrine.
As per Skymet weather, at present also, a Western Disturbance has been affecting the region since Monday night. This weather system is more active as compared to the previous weather systems.
