Parts of Himachal Pradesh are likely to witness thunderstorms with winds gusting up to 30-40 kmph with the weather department issuing a yellow alert for the next two days.

Light rain and snow are likely at a few places of Chamba, Kullu, Kangra, and Lahaul and Spiti on Thursday and light to moderate rainfall in many parts of Shimla, Sirmaur Solan and Kangra on Friday, the weather department said.

It also predicted hailstorms at isolated places in the mid-hills of the state on Thursday.

The weather remained mainly dry in the state on Wednesday, barring light rain in isolated parts. Bhuntar, Dharamsala and Sundernagar experienced severe heat.

The rain deficit from March 1 to April 9 is 43 per cent as the state received 75.6 mm of rain against normal rainfall of 133.5 mm.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
