Jammu and Kashmir Avalanche kills 6 army personnel
Jan 26, 2017 03:00 PM
An active Western Disturbance has been resulting in heavy rain and snow in several parts of Jammu and Kashmir for the past few days. The intensity of both rain and snow has increased significantly during the last 24 hours.
So much so that a series of avalanches have occurred in the higher reaches of Jammu and Kashmir. An avalanche had hit an Army camp in Gurez Sector in Jammu and Kashmir. Due to this, at least six army personnel including a Major have lost their lives. Also, six have been rescued.
Several avalanches had hit the higher reaches of Jammu and Kashmir. At least 150 people were rescued as rescue operations commenced immediately.
During the next 24 hours, moderate to heavy rain and snow will continue over the hills of North India. The possibility of avalanches in the higher reaches cannot be ruled out.
Heavy snowfall in Jammu and Kashmir and other parts of the Western Himalayas has resulted in an avalanche. The avalanche hit an army base camp in Sonamarg, Jammu and Kashmir region. The body of a jawan has also been recovered following the avalanche. As per sources from the Indian Army, the death toll is expected to rise even further. Skymet Weather had already provided an alert regarding the possibility of avalanches in the higher reaches of Jammu and Kashmir and adjoining areas.
These weather conditions are attributed to the presence of a very active Western Disturbance which has been resulting in heavy rain and snow over the hilly states of North India. It is not the first avalanche that has hit the Jammu and Kashmir region in the last 24 hours. In fact, another avalanche was observed last night in Budugam in Gurez sector in the Bandipora district last night due to which at least four people were buried alive. Rescue teams had rushed to the area, as per reports. As per Skymet Weather, heavy to very heavy rainfall along with snow is expected to continue during the next 24 hours as well.

IND vs ENG: Rain to spare T20 match in Kanpur
Weather conditions have turned rainy in the plains of North India during the last 24 hours. So much so that even now, several parts of Delhi and the NCR region along with parts of Punjab, Rajasthan and Haryana have been witnessing good rainfall activity accompanied with lightning strikes.
These weather conditions can be attributed to the presence of an induced cyclonic circulation over North Pakistan and adjoining areas of Punjab and Rajasthan developed under the influence of the prevailing Western Disturbance in the hills of North India.
However, the state of Uttar Pradesh has been spared from any rains. The T20 series between India and England which is scheduled to begin today in Kanpur is likely to be spared. The weather conditions are expected to remain cloudy throughout the match.
However, the possibility of rainfall is highly unlikely as rains are likely to begin during the late-night hours and continue until tomorrow. Thus, no interruption of rainfall is likely in the first match of the three T20 match series which is scheduled at 4:30 pm.
The T20 series is the first for newbie Captain Virat Kohli. India has already won the ODI series against England 2-1 with Yuvraj Singh making a smashing comeback. MS Dhoni has also been a star performer after scoring 134 runs in the second match. The newbie Kedar Jadhav has also been a boon for the Indian Team.

Chennai rains expected tonight; to continue until tomorrow
Weather of Chennai has remained mostly dry since the beginning of January. Though, light rainy spells were observed by the state capital on the very first day of the month. Thereafter, rain remained absent over the city.
At present, Chennai is observing pleasant weather conditions, particularly during the day though nights are comparatively warmer. Mercury has been settling above average. During the last 24 hours, Chennai witnessed lows of 25.7°C which is five degrees above the normal.
However, now, it seems that rain gods are bequeathing some sympathy on the Chennaities thereby eliminating the elongated dry spells. Hence, scattered rains and thundershowers are expected to lash the city by today late night or early morning tomorrow.
In fact, people in the city have been witnessing cloudy weather from last night and clouding is likely to increase over parts of Tamil Nadu including Chennai by tonight. Few rain traces have also been observed over parts of Tamil Nadu including Chennai.
The reason for these showers can be attributed to a trough of low that persists over Southwest Bay of Bengal off the Comorin coast. Furthermore, due to this, the easterly waves are also likely to get activated which will lead to increase in clouding.
Isolated pockets of the city are expected to witness rains until January 28. Moreover, temperatures are also expected to fall by 2-3°C.

Rainy day likely for Bangalore tomorrow
Bangalore has not been lucky enough to observe some good showers in the month of January. Ever since the month began, good rains have remained absent from showing up in the city. However, few traces of rains were observed by the state capital on one or two occasions.
Bangalore witnessed a few light traces of rain on January 22 and then finally the city managed to witness some rainy spells during last 24 hours as well.
However, as per Skymet Weather, now, it seems that finally, the capital of Karnataka is up for some rains as a trough of low persists over Southwest Bay of Bengal off the Comorin coast. Furthermore, due to this, the easterly waves are also likely to get activated which will lead to increase in clouding.
In the wake of this weather system, Bangalore is expected to witness some scattered rains and thundershowers on January 27. These rains are likely to continue for 24 hours and thereafter, weather of the city will once again become dry.
As far as the weather conditions over Bangalore is concerned, nights in the capital city are warmer wherein mercury is nudging above the normal for the city. During the last 24 hours as well, mercury settled at 18.3°C which is 2 degrees above the normal.

[Hindi] कश्मीर में हिमस्खलन की घटना में अब तक 14 जवानों की गई जान
जनवरी की शुरुआत से ही जम्मू कश्मीर में छोटे-छोटे अंतराल के बाद मौसम की व्यापक सक्रियता देखने को मिल रही है और राज्य में रुक-रुक कर भारी बर्फबारी कई जगहों पर जारी है। कई इलाकों में भीषण हिमपात के चलते सामान्य जनजीवन ना सिर्फ पटरी से उतर गया है बल्कि सीमाओं की सुरक्षा में तैनात जवानों की ज़िंदगी दांव पर लग गई है। राज्य लगातार में हो रही बर्फबारी के चलते कई जगहों पर हिमस्खलन की घटनाएँ देखने को मिल रही हैं।
गुरेज़ सैक्टर में हुए हिमस्खलन के चलते एक मेजर सहित कई सैनिक मारे गए हैं। अब तक हिमस्खलन की चपेट में आने से 14 जवानों की मौत हो चुकी है। बृहस्पतिवार तक 10 शव निकाले गए थे जबकि 4 जवानों के शव शुक्रवार को मिले हैं। मारे गए सभी जवान 51वीं राष्ट्रीय राइफल में तैनात थे। बचाव दल प्रभावित क्षेत्र में राहत और बचाव के लिए सभी संभव उपाय कर रहा है लेकिन खराब मौसम इस अभियान में बाधा बन रहा है। हालांकि राहत की बात यह है कि वर्तमान पश्चिमी विक्षोभ पूर्वी दिशा में निकल रहा है जिससे जल्द ही मौसम साफ होने की संभावना है।
इसी तरह की घटना बीते वर्ष सियाचीन ग्लेशियर पर देखने को मिली थी जब भारी बर्फबारी के बाद हिमस्खलन की चपेट में आने से 10 जवानों की मौत हो गई थी। गौरतलब है कि बीते 3-4 दिनों से जारी भारी वर्षा और हिमपात के चलते जम्मू कश्मीर में हिमस्खलन की घटनाएँ हो रही हैं।
जम्मू कश्मीर के सोनमर्ग स्थित सेना के बेस कैंप पर भारी मात्रा में ऊपरी सी आई बर्फ के चलते कैंप में मौजूद सेना के जवान इसकी चपेट में आ गए। जम्मू कश्मीर और हिमाचल प्रदेश में संभावित बारिश और भारी बर्फबारी को देखते हुए स्काइमेट ने पहले ही कई जगहों पर हिमस्खलन की आशंका जताई थी। विशेष खतरा ऊंचाई वाले इलाकों में है। विपरीत मौसमी हालात में ऐसी प्रकृतिक आपदाएँ स्वाभावित हैं। आवश्यकता है ऐसी किसी भी संभावित जानलेवा मौसमी स्थिति से निपटने के लिए पूरी तरह से कमर कसने की ताकि कोई जवान लापरवाही का शिकार ना हो।

Delhi observes rainiest January since 1999
Delhi rains have remained far and few during the past few days. So much so that the city has remained dry for the past twenty days. During the last two to three days, both minimums and maximums were also settling above the normal levels.
The city received a mere 3 mm of rain on January 7. Thereafter, the weather remained dry for a long time. However, rain gods finally bestowed some kindness over the national capital and moderate rains were observed in Delhi and the NCR region on Republic Day.
The city had begun to receive rainfall since the morning hours and the rains continued until late night hours in many parts of the city. In a span of 24 hours from 8:30 am on Thursday, Palam observatory recorded 35 mm of rain. Not only this, 30 mm of rainfall was also observed at the Safdarjung observatory.
The monthly rainfall in Delhi stands at 19.3 mm which was surpassed in a 24-hour period itself. Not only this, as per the available date, this January happens to be the wettest since the year 1999. The monthly mean in terms of rain stood at 47 mm in January 1999.
Thereafter, such heavy rains were not observed until the year 2017. Not only this, these rains ocuured in a period of 24 hours are also the highest in the last ten years. The last time such rains were observed in January was in 2013 when 21 mm rainfall was received.

More rains in Chennai likely
Chennai and nearby areas have been recording scattered rain and thundershowers for the last 48 hours. Further, weathermen predict these showers to continue for another 24 hours as well. However, intensity of rain is likely to reduce.
According to Skymet Weather, the trough that has been persisting from Gulf of Mannar to North Tamil Nadu coast for the last few days. This was responsible for giving some moderate to heavy rains over entire Tamil Nadu. Few areas have also received some extremely heavy.
Chennai also recorded scattered light to moderate rain during this period over the few areas. In span of 24 hours from 8:30 am on Friday, the city recorded 4 mm of rain.
Now, the trough is prevailing over South Tamil Nadu and hence, intensity of rains will decrease over the northern parts of the state including Chennai.
In wake of this, rains are expected at isolated pockets over Chennai today. Again, rain activity will be not be widespread in nature but few short spells only.
Thereafter, weather is likely to clear up over the state capital. On Sunday, weather will remain mainly dry with partly cloudy sky.
Meanwhile, moderate to heavy rains will continue over the interior and southern parts of Tamil Nadu for another 48 hours.

Bangalore rains to continue for another 24 hours
Bangalore had been witnessing dry weather conditions for quite some time now. So much so that the city had not received even a mm of rainfall during the first few days of January.
However, rains have finally made an appearance over the state of Karnataka long with parts of Bangalore. In fact, South Interior Karnataka has been receiving scattered rains for the past 48 hours. These rains can be attributed to a trough which was extending from North Tamil Nadu to Gulf of Mannar.
During the last 24 hours from 8:30 am on Friday, Chintamani recorded 2 mm of rainfall along with Mysore where 2 mm rain was witnessed. Traces of rains were also recorded in Bangalore.
Now, this trough has shifted towards the southern areas of Tamil Nadu. However, scattered rains are expected to continue over South Interior Karnataka including Bangalore for another 24 to 48 hours.
Though rains will be patchy and intensity will be light only. By evening hours of January 30, weather is likely to clear up and bright sunshine will take over. Thereafter, the possibility of development of a weather system in the Southern Peninsula during the next 10 to 12 days is highly unlikely.

Comfortable weather ahead for Delhi NCR
After witnessing good rains and thundershowers, weather over Delhi-NCR has now clear up. With this, maximums temperatures that had dropped significantly, will now start rising towards the normal.
Clear weather conditions have also paved way for cold and dry northwesterly winds once again. With this, night temperatures that had once mounted to 16°C, almost eight degrees above normal, will also start registering a dip by one or two degrees.
Thus, in the coming days, we can expect comfortable days with bright sunshine but nights will be cooler. However, bone chilling wintery conditions are not likely to make a comeback over the region at least for the next few days.
On Thursday, the national capital recorded widespread heavy rainfall to the tune of 30 mm. With this, Delhi had also surpassed its monthly average rainfall of 19.3 mm. These rains were on account of a strong cyclonic circulation that had travelled all across the northwestern plains, right from North Rajasthan to West Uttar Pradesh.
So far in January, Palam Observatory has recorded 41.7 mm of rain, while Safdarjung Observatory has received 33.7 mm. These rainfall figures have made January 2017 the rainiest January in the span of last 18 years.

Light rains to continue over Tamil Nadu, Kerala
After a dry Northeast Monsoon, rains have finally showed up in both the states of Tamil Nadu and Kerala in the last couple of days thereby eliminating the prolonged dry spell. So much so that many parts of the states have ended up recording heavy rains as well.
In a span of 24 hours from 08:30 am on Saturday, Pamban witnessed a whopping of 131 mm of rainfall, followed by Coonoor that recorded 80 mm. Likewise, Coimbatore witnessed 16 mm, Kodaikanal 14 mm, Periakulum 14 mm, Alapuzha 21 mm and Kottayam 17 mm of rainfall.
The reason for these good showers can be credited to a trough of low which is extending from Gulf of Mannar up to North Tamil Nadu. Another trough is seen from Konkan and Goa region up to Comorin area in lower levels. Moreover, the easterly winds are also moderate in nature along the coast thus fuelling the system, paving way for rain and thundershowers across the states.
According to Skymet Weather, in the next 24 hours this rain activity is likely to reduce over northern and interior parts of Tamil Nadu. However, light rains are expected to continue over rest of the state, Kerala and South Coastal Karnataka.
The weather is expected to remain pleasant over all these areas. This can be labelled as the last rainy spell in the month of January for both the states.

Light showers won't affect rain deficiency of Northeast India
During the winter season, due to successive Western Disturbances, northeastern states manage to receive good rain and thundershowers. But so far this season, many parts of these states are reeling under the rainfall deficiency by more than 80%.
A Western Disturbance was seen moving across the Tibet region. Also, a cyclonic circulation developed over Meghalaya and adjoining areas. Thus, with the combined effect of these systems, rain was expected to occur at many places over Arunachal Pradesh, Assam and Meghalaya.
But only clouding prevailed for elongated period over the region, but only light showers were observed over most parts during last 24 hours.
In a span of 24 hours from 08:30 am on Saturday, Tawang witnessed 6 mm of rainfall, followed by Mazbat that recorded 5 mm. Likewise, Tinsukia witnessed 8 mm, Anni 2 mm, North Lakhimpur 2 mm, Dibrugarh 0.5 mm, Passighat 0.1, Itanagar 0.8 mm and Shillong 0.4 mm of rainfall.
Now, as the Western disturbance is seen moving away and the persisting cyclonic circulation has also became insignificant, rain is likely to abate from the plains; however isolated rain with light thundering will continue over the hilly terrains.
With this, we can say that rainfall deficiency will continue to prevail over northeastern states.

Rain and snow to continue over Northern Hills of India
The hilly states of North India witnessed a drastic change in weather conditions during the month of January. The region witnessed heavy rain and snowfall due to back to back Western Disturbances.
Now, a fresh Western Disturbance is likely to approach Jammu and Kashmir during the next 24 hours. Under the influence of this system, we can say that on and off wet spell will continue to lash the region.
In the span of 24 hours from 08:30 am on Saturday, Gulmarg recorded 11 mm of rainfall along with snow. Rain and snow also occurred at places like Kupwara which received 11 mm, Pahalgam 8 mm, Qazikund 5 mm and Srinagar 14 mm.
The Western Disturbance is presently marked over Afghanistan and adjoining Pakistan. This system is expected to move in an east-northeast direction.
With this, rain and snowfall is expected to intensify over the hilly states namely Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. This spell is likely to maintain its grip over the region for at least next 3-4 days.
During the next 24 hours, moderate spells of precipitation are expected at most places over the states, with isolated heavy falls also possible. The chances of avalanche cannot be ruled out which is why tourists and residents are advised to stay alert and take precautionary measures.

January to end on a rainy note for Punjab
After witnessing a rainy Republic Day, Punjab rains took a backseat thereby making the weather go dry again. However, now, people in Punjab are expected to take their brollies out as weather is expected to become rainy once again.
As per Skymet Weather, a Western Disturbance is likely to affect the northern hills, including the states Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. This is likely to bring rain or snow to the hilly states.
Alongside, under the influence of this Western Disturbance, rains are likely to even show up in the adjoining northern plains especially in the state of Punjab. Particularly the northern parts of the state including districts like Amritsar, Gurdaspur, Pathankot and other northern districts of the state are more prone to witnessing the showers in next 24 hours. Thus, these will be short-lived rainy spells that the state is predicted to witness.
Henceforth, the weather will become dry again. However, then, another fresh Western Disturbance is expected to affect the Western Himalayas and adjoining plains. This would result in the second spell of rains over Punjab around February 3. Moreover, this would be comparatively intense and is likely to cover a larger area.
Thus, in a nutshell, it can be said that January is expected to end on a rainy note for Punjab.
