As per Skymet Weather, these rain and snow activities can be attributed to the Western Disturbance that is over Jammu and Kashmir and adjoining Pakistan. However, now this weather system is likely to move northwestwards thereby resulting in reducing the rainfall activity over the country in the next 24 hours.
