He said mercury remained above normal in the Kashmir valley and weather was pleasant. Pahalgam, famed health resort in south Kashmir recorded lowest minimum temperature of 3 degree in the Valley, which still was a notch above normal. This has resulted in increase in the water level in river Lidder passing through Pahalgam and other water bodies due to melting of snow on higher reaches.

Qazigund recorded 6.3 degree which was a notch below normal while at Kokernag it was 8.3 degree, more than two notches above normal.
