Babusar Top, a favorite tourist destination in Kaghan Valley, has experienced its first snowfall of the season, much to the delight of visitors. A beautiful one-inch layer of snow blanketed the area, creating a magical winter scene that thrilled everyone present.
However, the same weather system that brought snow to Babusar Top also resulted in heavy rainfall across Balakot and the Kaghan Valley, leading to some serious disruptions.
The heavy rain caused Manor Nullah to flood again, affecting the Mahandri Bazaar and bringing traffic to a standstill. The flooding also forced the temporary closure of the Kaghan Highway, making travel difficult for many.
In response to the challenging weather conditions, the Meteorological Department has issued a forecast predicting continued rain over the next two days.
They are advising travelers to avoid any unnecessary trips and to be extra cautious if they must be on the roads. The department’s warnings are a reminder of the unpredictability of mountain weather and the importance of safety during such conditions.
This early snowfall at Babusar Top, while picturesque, serves as a reminder of how quickly the weather can change in these regions. Tourists and locals alike are encouraged to stay informed about the weather and to prioritize safety over sightseeing during this period.
As the rain continues, the authorities are closely monitoring the situation to prevent further disruptions and ensure that everyone stays safe.
