Uttarakhand weather: Fresh spell of snow on Adi Kailash and Om Parvat

The weather changed on Wednesday. After several days of intense sunshine, the district remained cloudy throughout the day. Snow fell in the Adi Kailash and Om Parvat areas of Pithoragarh district. Snowfall also fell on the higher peaks of Munsyari.

The sky remained overcast since Wednesday morning. The clouds thickened in the afternoon, raising hopes of rain, but they were disappointed. Cold winds throughout the day in Didihat, Dharchula, Berinag, and Gangolihat, including the district headquarters, caused temperatures to drop, forcing people to bring out their warm clothing again.

Light snowfall occurred in the Om Parvat and Adi Kailash areas of Dharchula tehsil in the afternoon. Based on the weather, heavy snowfall is expected at night. Strong winds continued throughout the day in Gunji village.

Meanwhile, snowfall also fell on the higher peaks of Panchachuli, Hansaling, and Rajrambha in Munsyari tehsil. The snowfall has increased the cold in Munsyari headquarters. Due to the lack of rain, moisture in the fields is once again decreasing. The risk of forest fires is also increasing.
