According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), the lower-level easterly winds are set to interact with the mid-level westerly winds over Northeast India, thereby creating instability and causing precipitation over the region.

This interaction will give rise to fairly widespread to widespread rainfall over Arunachal Pradesh from Tuesday to Thursday, and scattered rainfall over Assam, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram and Tripura on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Furthermore, isolated thunderstorms, lightning and gusty winds are also on the cards across the entire region over the next three days.

In view of these predictions, the IMD has issued a yellow watch over the entire region from Tuesday to Thursday, with the advisory urging residents to ‘be aware’ of their local weather situation and seek protection if necessary.

However, these wet conditions are unlikely to have an impact on the region’s mercury levels, as the IMD expected no significant change in the maximum temperatures across the country for the next five days.

According to Hindustan Times, the weather may affect the highways on the Banihal-Ramban stretch and at Zojila as the precipitation was likely to cause landslides and snow slides.

The weather office on Tuesday predicted erratic weather in Jammu and Kashmir for the next week and urged farmers to avoid spraying during the period. Sonam Lotus, director of the meteorological department said that weather will remain erratic till March 15.

“We expect intermittent rain with thunderstorm and snow over higher reaches mainly during March 11 to 13,” he said

Lotus said that the weather may affect highways on the Banihal-Ramban stretch and in Zojila s as the precipitation was likely to cause landslides and snow slides. He also urged farmers to suspend their operations for the time being.

“Farmers are advised to avoid spraying orchards and other farm operations till March 15,” he said.

Rain and snow have lashed parts of Kashmir valley intermittently since Sunday improving the night temperatures but bringing down the mercury during the day.

“Gulmarg recorded 37 cm snow in the past 24 hours,” meteorologist Mohammad Hussain Mir said on Tuesday morning."
