A fresh wave of rain and snowfall has commenced in Upper Dir, bringing a significant drop in temperatures across the region. Since last night, the plains of Dir Bala have experienced steady rainfall, while the upper areas have been blanketed by a new series of snowfall, further intensifying the cold weather.
Late into the night, snowfall continued in several prominent locations, including Kumrat Valley, Jaz, Banda, ushiri Pass, Lowari Top, Lowari Tunnel, Dogdara, and Ker Pass.
The snow has transformed the landscape, covering the mountains in a pristine white layer and enhancing the natural beauty of the area.
This recent snowfall comes as a relief to locals, as the region had experienced a lack of timely snowfall earlier in the winter season.
The fresh snow is expected to have positive implications for water resources and agriculture in the coming months. Residents and tourists alike are enjoying the picturesque scenery, though the cold wave has prompted people to take necessary precautions to stay warm.
