The Valley continues to reel under a severe cold wave as summer capital Srinagar froze at minus 5.9 degrees Celsius on Wednesday night. Ski-resort Gulmarg in Baramulla recorded minus 10.4 degrees, being the coldest recorded station in the Valley on Wednesday night. Pahalgam recorded minus 9.6 degrees Celsius. While sunshine greeted the Valley on Thursday, Srinagar recorded 8.1 degrees Celsius maximum temperature.

The impact of the severe cold wave has taken its toll also on winter capital Jammu which recorded 2.8 degrees Celsius on Wednesday night, which is several notches below normal. The Valley is witnessing the 40-day harshest winter of Chillai Kalan when a cold wave grips the region and the temperature drops considerably leading to the freezing of water bodies including the Dal Lake as well as the water supply lines in several parts of the valley. The chances of snowfall are most frequent and maximum during this period and most areas, especially in the higher reaches, receive heavy snowfall.

HIGHWAY CLOSED FOR TRAFFIC ON FRIDAY:

The 270-kilometre Srinagar-Jammu National Highway will remain closed for vehicular traffic for undertaking repair works on Friday, a traffic department advisory said. Traffic on the highway has remained suspended on Fridays for the last few weeks owing to repair works.(GK)
