Every month, beginning leads people to paths of unpredictable weather strength. Residents remained unprepared when the untimely storm combined with hail hit their area and turned the streets into dangerous moisture-covered surfaces. The sudden change in weather conditions created obstacles for Muslims fasting during Ramadan by making it hard for them to leave home for their morning meals before sunrise.
In the heart of Muzaffarabad, the erratic weather has left people in a state of confusion. As soon as the sun appears, residents set aside their warm clothing, believing spring has finally arrived. However, the next moment, with the onset of rain, they find themselves reaching for their coats and winter garments once again. The unstable temperature pattern occurs routinely, making it hard for people in the area to adjust properly.
The recent combination of rains and hailstorms develops after numerous unexpected climate shifts throughout the seasonal transition period. The rain brings pleasant relief to some but farmers together with business owners keep their attention on crop conditions and marketplace operations. The hailstorm especially generates concern about the destruction of seasonal crops because it could disrupt regional market supplies throughout the upcoming weeks.
Residents should exercise caution during their travel especially in hilly areas since these regions are at risk for landslides and their roads become slippery. People of Muzaffarabad might need to suffer through unpredictable weather patterns beyond typical springtime temperatures since the winter climate shows no sign of change.
