They said the intense cold conditions over the past few days led to the freezing of the fringes of several water bodies, including the Dal Lake here, while water supply lines in many areas of the city here and elsewhere in the valley were also frozen due to the cold.

The skiing resort of Gulmarg recorded a low of minus 5 degrees Celsius, a degree down from the night before.

Tourist resort Pahalgam recorded a low of minus 5.8 degrees Celsius which was slightly up from the previous night’s minus 5 degrees Celsius.

Konibal, a sleepy hamlet on the outskirts of Pampore town, was the coldest place in the valley as mercury settled at the low of minus 6.5 degrees Celsius.

The minimum temperature in Qazigund — the gateway to Kashmir — was minus 5 degrees Celsius, Kupwara in north Kashmir minus 4.4 degrees, and Kokernag in south Kashmir minus 2.8 degrees.

The Met Office has forecast mainly dry weather till December 26 with possibility of light snowfall in higher reaches of the valley on the night of December 21-22.

However, the minimum temperature is forecast to fall further in the valley and there will be a cold wave over many stations during the next few days, it said.

“A cold wave is expected to grip the region on December 19 and 20, with temperatures dropping significantly across stations. From December 21 onwards, the weather will turn slightly cloudy, with a brief spell of snowfall expected in the mountains between December 21 and 22,” local news agency KINS quoted a Met official as saying.

The forecast indicates that the weather is likely to remain dry from December 23 to 26, although an increase in cold conditions is expected during this period, he said.

On the impact of Western Disturbances (WD) in the region, he stated, “As of now, it is difficult to predict any significant effect from the Western Disturbances. There are very few chances of notable activity. While some cloudiness is expected around December 27 and 28, no major weather events are anticipated in Jammu and Kashmir until the end of December.”
