Udhampur: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has warned of severe weather conditions in Jammu and Kashmir between April 18 and 20, citing the influence of an active western disturbance.
The forecast includes heavy rain, thunderstorms, hailstorms, and gusty winds, prompting authorities to implement precautionary measures to safeguard lives and livestock.
Nomadic communities, many of whom are stationed near the Narsu area, have been advised to delay their upward movement into the hilly regions until the weather subsides.
Officials from the Sheep Husbandry Department are actively engaging with the nomads to raise awareness about the potential risks posed by the inclement weather.
In addition, the department has deployed teams to conduct health check-ups on migrating livestock, particularly sheep and goats, to ensure they are healthy and resilient enough to face environmental challenges.
Authorities continue to monitor the situation closely and have reiterated their appeal to nomads to prioritize safety and cooperate with ongoing advisories until the severe weather threat passes.
