Monsoon rains expected in Kashmir by July 6

Kashmir is finally getting its first taste of monsoon rains starting July 6, 2025, after weeks of intense heat.
The weather department expects a hot, humid July 5 with a chance of light rain or storms late at night.
From July 6 to 8, most of Kashmir will see light to moderate showers, while some parts of Jammu could get heavier rainfall.

TL;DR

Rain will bring relief from heat

The rain will bring much-needed relief from the heat and help local farms and orchards bounce back.
But there's also a heads-up: officials warn about possible flash floods, landslides, and waterlogging in low-lying areas during this wet spell.
If you're in hilly spots or near rivers, it's smart to stay alert as the monsoon picks up.
