Night temperature to dip in coming days

Jammu: Though Jammu is still experiencing a dry spell, night temperature is likely to dip during the next few days.The minimum temperature is likely to remain at 9°C while the maximum temperature will hover between 24-25°C next week.As per the weekly forecast released by the Agrometeorology Division of Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agriculture University (SKUAST-Jammu) though the weather will remain partially cloudy, the minimum temperature is likely to dip in coming days.The weather, especially the rainfall during the winters in the region, is dependent on the western disturbance but in the recent years it’s getting delayed thus aggravating the problems of farmers during the rabi season. According to weather department officials, strong western disturbance still eludes the region, which has resulted in non-formation of low pressure areas, resulting into the prolonged dry spell. (TNS)
