After a couple of days of clear weather, some parts of the State are likely to witness rain on Monday. The State Meteorological Centre has issued a yellow warning (Watch) regarding the possibility of thunder cloud development likely in Uttarkashi, Rudraprayag and Chamoli districts. Further, light to moderate rainfall is likely to occur at many places in Uttarkashi, Rudraprayag and Chamoli districts while very light to light rainfall is likely to occur at a few places in Bageshwar and Pithoragarh districts and at isolated places in Dehradun and Tehri districts today. Apart from this, dry weather is likely to prevail in the remaining districts today.
The provisional State capital Dehradun is likely to witness a mainly clear to partly cloudy sky. Thunder cloud development is likely with the possibility of very light rain towards night. The maximum and minimum temperatures are likely to be about 27 degrees Celsius and 12 degrees Celsius respectively in Dehradun today.
It will be recalled that two to three days of heavy snowfall in the higher reaches and rain in most parts of the State had led to major repercussions as seen in the avalanche at Mana near Badrinath in Chamoli district, but had also resulted in a noticeable drop in the temperatures across the State. The weather cleared on Saturday and remained warm and sunny on Sunday too. However, the weather is forecast to take to turn now, as stated earlier by the India Meteorological Department.
Meanwhile, the maximum and minimum temperatures recorded on Sunday were 27.2 degrees Celsius and 10.1 degrees Celsius respectively in Dehradun, 28.5 degrees Celsius and 7.4 degrees Celsius in Pantnagar, 15.9 degrees Celsius and 3.1 degrees Celsius in Mukteshwar and 16.8 degrees Celsius and 4.6 degrees Celsius in Tehri.
