During the second Western Disturbances, the plains of Kashmir may witness light to moderate rain/snow with few inches of snowfall possible over some plains. While Jammu may witness light to moderate rain showers and snowfall over the higher reaches of the region, he said while talking to News Agency Kashmir Scroll.

The forecaster said a third disturbance may affect the region 60-70% from 30th January to 2nd February.
