The centre was inaugurated by Union Minister for Science &amp; Technology and Earth Sciences, Jitendra Singh. This new facility is expected to improve weather forecasting, climate monitoring, and disaster preparedness across the Himalayan region, particularly in Jammu &amp; Kashmir, Ladakh, and Himachal Pradesh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Significance_of_the_Seventh_Regional_Meteorological_Centre\"><\/span>Significance of the Seventh Regional Meteorological Centre<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Jammu-based RMC has become the seventh such centre in the country. Earlier, weather services for these northern Himalayan regions were coordinated through Delhi. The establishment of a dedicated centre in Jammu represents a decentralization of meteorological services and aims to provide faster, region-specific weather information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Regions_Covered_by_the_New_Centre\"><\/span>Regions Covered by the New Centre<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The newly inaugurated centre will serve:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Jammu &amp; Kashmir<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ladakh<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Himachal Pradesh<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These regions are characterized by complex terrain, including high mountains, valleys, glaciers, and pilgrimage routes. Accurate forecasting in such areas is essential for public safety and economic activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advanced_Weather_Forecasting_Capabilities\"><\/span>Advanced Weather Forecasting Capabilities<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The centre will provide:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>District-level weather forecasts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mountain weather forecasts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tourist advisories<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>City-specific weather updates<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Climate monitoring services<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Early warning systems for extreme weather events<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The facility is equipped to issue warnings related to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Flash floods<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cloudbursts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Avalanches<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Heavy snowfall<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Thunderstorms<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Landslides<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Heatwaves and cold waves<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Such services are particularly important in the Himalayan ecosystem, where sudden weather changes can have severe consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_for_Pilgrims_and_Local_Communities\"><\/span>Benefits for Pilgrims and Local Communities<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The centre will significantly benefit pilgrims undertaking the annual Amarnath Yatra and devotees visiting the Vaishno Devi shrine. Timely weather updates can help authorities manage crowd movement and reduce risks associated with adverse weather conditions. Farmers, transport operators, hydropower projects, tourism stakeholders, and disaster management agencies will also gain from improved forecasts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Expansion_of_Meteorological_Infrastructure\"><\/span>Expansion of Meteorological Infrastructure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Government of India has considerably expanded weather-monitoring infrastructure in the region over the last decade. Four Doppler Weather Radars are currently operational in Jammu, Srinagar, Leh, and Banihal Top. Additional radars have been proposed under Mission Mausam to further strengthen weather surveillance capabilities. The number of observatories and rainfall monitoring stations has also increased significantly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Importance_for_Disaster_Risk_Reduction\"><\/span>Importance for Disaster Risk Reduction<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Himalayan region frequently experiences cloudbursts, landslides, flash floods, and extreme snowfall events. Improved forecasting and early warning dissemination can help reduce loss of life and property. The centre aligns with India&#8217;s broader efforts to strengthen climate resilience and disaster management systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator
