New Delhi: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted another spell of rain, thunderstorms and snowfall in the higher reaches of Uttarakhand for Tuesday, June 2. Earlier on Monday, rain lashed parts of the state, and temperatures stayed below normal.
According to the weather department data till 5:30 pm, Dehradun recorded a maximum temperature of 32.6 degrees Celsius, three notches below normal, and a minimum of 20.2 degrees Celsius.
