Amid intense heatwaves sweeping across India, where temperatures have soared above 45°C, Kashmir is experiencing an unusual weather pattern marked by unseasonal snowfall and consistent rainfall. This dramatic shift has lowered temperatures in the region to a comfortable 10°C to 19°C, attracting tourists seeking respite from the heat. Popular destinations like Gulmarg, known for its ski slopes, have reported fresh snowfall, allowing visitors to enjoy winter sports even in the summer months. Tourists like Meenu Sharma and Ramesh have expressed their delight, calling their experiences 'lifetime moments' in what they describe as 'paradise on earth.' The Gurez Valley has also seen significant snow accumulation, enhancing its appeal. However, the weather has not been without its challenges; the Srinagar-Leh National Highway has been temporarily closed due to slippery conditions, stranding some commuters. The Meteorological Centre Srinagar has warned of ongoing erratic weather, including thunderstorms and hailstorms, expected to continue in the coming days. As Kashmir welcomes visitors with its chilly climate, the contrast to the heat affecting the Indian plains highlights the region's unique allure.
