"A fresh western disturbance has become active raising the possibility
of light to moderate rains or snow from January 21 to 23," a spokesman
of the MET department said.
Like the past few days, Tuesday started with a sunny note, but later the sun disappeared behind cloud cover, bringing in a fresh cold wave due to the approaching western disturbance, main system affecting weather in the Valley.
The maximum temperature recorded in Srinagar, the summer capital of Jammu and Kashmir, on Monday was 13.6 degrees Celsius - eight degrees above normal.
Due to mostly clear sky, the night temperature, however, continued to remain several degrees below the freezing point as Srinagar recorded a low of minus 2.4 degrees Celsius against minus 2.6 degrees Celsius the previous night.
Leh continued to be the coldest recorded place in the state with a minimum of minus 15.5 degrees Celsius.
Nearby Kargil town registered a dip of 1.2 degrees in the minimum temperature as the mercury settled at minus 14.6 degrees Celsius.
The famous south Kashmir hill resort of Pahalgam was the coldest recorded place in the Valley with the night temperature recorded at minus 5.4 degrees Celsius as compared to 6 degrees the previous night.
