SRINAGAR: A red alert has been issued for Jammu and Kashmir for the next 24 hours as the region braces for intense weather activity due to the convergence of active monsoon winds and a western disturbance, according to the Kashmir Weather Forecast.
The weather system is expected to bring widespread heavy to very heavy rainfall across the Union Territory, particularly affecting Jammu and parts of South Kashmir. Authorities have warned that the upcoming spell may lead to flash floods in vulnerable low-lying and hilly areas.
The peak impact of the weather system is anticipated between the early morning and afternoon hours of Tuesday, with intense rainfall expected across most regions of Jammu and Kashmir.
The advisory has urged the public to remain cautious, avoid travel in flood-prone areas, and stay updated through official weather bulletins. Local administrations are on high alert to respond to any emergency arising from the potential flooding.
More updates are expected as the situation develops.
