It appears that the winter season is here to stay for a few more days as different parts of Punjab and Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) received rain and snow on Wednesday night and Thursday, reported 24NewsHD TV channel. 

While it rained in the twin cities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad, heavy snow in Murree, a popular hill resort near Islamabad, and adjoining areas of Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) made the weather not only chillier but also extremely pleasant.

Mountains in Leepa, Chakkar, Sudhan Gali and Neelum Valley areas of AJK are covered in a white sheet of snow due to the snowfall which has been continuing since last night, while rain in low-lying areas led to landslides, blocking roads and thus creating extreme inconvenience for the locals as well as the tourists.
