Snowfall predictions by regional meteorological center

Director of the meteorological center in Dehradun, Dr. Bikram Singh, has indicated that snowfall and rain are expected in high-altitude areas on January 16 and 17. He stated that snowfall is likely in regions with altitudes exceeding 3,000 meters, specifically in Uttarkashi, Chamoli, Rudraprayag, Pithoragarh, and Bageshwar. Between January 16 and 20, these areas may witness significant snowfall, increasing the cold conditions.

Dense fog in the plains

Meanwhile, dense fog is anticipated in the plain districts of Haridwar and Udham Singh Nagar. The Meteorological Department has issued a yellow alert for these regions, warning that visibility may be significantly reduced in the mornings and nights, potentially affecting road traffic. People traveling in these areas are advised to be cautious.

Residents are advised to remain vigilant

The Meteorological Department has urged residents to remain vigilant, particularly in regions where snowfall and rain are expected. The temperature across the state is continuously falling, which could intensify the cold. Experts have noted that the minimum temperature in many parts of Uttarakhand is already below normal and may decrease further in the coming days.

Special advice from the administration for tourists

The expected snowfall is drawing a large number of tourists to the high-altitude areas. The administration has emphasized the importance of staying updated on weather forecasts and adhering to safety guidelines to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.
