Srinagar: Surface and air links between the Kashmir Valley and rest of the country were snapped due to heavy snowfall, officials said.
An official of the MeT Department said this was first time since 2009 that Srinagar city witnessed snowfall in November.
Reports of heavy snowfall were received from other district headquarters and major towns of the Valley as well, officials said, adding that it continued to snow in the higher reaches of Kashmir for the second day, triggering avalanches at some places.
The weatherman has forecast more downpour over the next 24 hours but predicted a dry period of two to three weeks from November 5. (PTI)
