Rain and snow are expected to make a brief return to Kashmir on Monday afternoon, marking the season’s first wet spell of November. According to the Meteorological Centre Srinagar, light to moderate rainfall is likely across most parts of Kashmir, with light snowfall confined to higher reaches between November 4 and 5.

The precipitation is expected to begin over the plains of north Kashmir between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m., in central Kashmir between 5 p.m. and 10 p.m., and in the southern parts between 5 p.m. and 11 p.m. The spell is expected to be short-lived, with snow over the plains considered unlikely.

Occasional thunderstorms, lightning, and gusty winds reaching up to 40 km/h are also possible during the evening. The weather office has advised residents and travelers, especially those in higher altitudes, to remain cautious due to potentially slippery conditions.

After this brief wet spell, weather conditions are expected to improve across Jammu and Kashmir, with dry weather likely from November 6 onwards. Temperatures, however, are expected to dip slightly following the fresh precipitation.
