Skardu, Hunza: Different parts of the Gilgit-Baltistan have been receiving varying range of snowfall since last night. The temperature has fallen below zero centigrade in Skardu, Gojal Valley, border areas of Astore and Baltistan.
A short video of snowfall in Skardu, captured by Shehryar, can be seen below.
Snow also fell in Aliabad town of Hunza and the adjacent areas of the Hunza-Nagar district. Almost all villages of the Gojal Valley received snowfall in the upper Hunza region.
The risk of snow avalanche and suspension of traffic are two of the major hazards of this season. However, the season of snowfall is not without its joys, like the one received by building a snowman.
