Submitted by vandu on Thu, 06/18/2009 - 16:27

The 13050 foot high Rohtang Pass experienced another spell of snow while about 30 cm of snowfall was reported during the past 24 hours.

More than 400 vehicles, including the army supplies to Kargil, were stuck due to the untimely snow on both sides of the Pass since Tuesday evening. But it was cleared today by 4 pm. The lower region, including Kullu, Bhuntar and Banjar towns, had widespread rains yesterday bringing down the day temperature around 20 degree Celsius.

The rains would prove blessings to the farmers in the region and would allow farmers to sow maize and off-season vegetables.
