QUETTA: Winter has descended upon several areas of Balochistan and the Met Office has forecast snowfall in the mountains and rainfall in several cities, including the provincial capital.

A new series of rainfall systems developed in various parts of Balochistan, including Quetta Valley, Kalat, Mastung, Chaman, Pishin, Qilla Saifullah, and are likely to continue for the next three to four days.
