Dharamshala Weather Update Today

Current Weather Forecast and Rain Probability
Dharamsala, located in the Kangra Valley, is under a 'Yellow Alert' from the India Meteorological Department (IMD) for scattered thunderstorms and heavy downpours until May 15. Evening match hours carry a 55-60% chance of precipitation, with overcast skies, possible light showers, or isolated thunderstorms. Temperatures are forecast to hover between 18-21°C at the start, dropping to 17-18°C later, accompanied by 33-38% humidity. While some forecasts suggest rain might ease by toss time, others warn of delays or interruptions, especially after heavy showers disrupted pre-match practice sessions.

PBKS vs MI Dharamshala Rain Chances

Earlier predictions varied, with some estimating rain chances as low as 6-10% and clearer skies. However, the latest IMD and local updates point to genuine uncertainty. Brief spells are possible, but persistent rain could lead to a full or partial washout at the high-altitude venue. Umpires will monitor conditions closely under the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern (DLS) method for any shortened play.

What Happens If the Match is Washed Out?


Under IPL league-stage rules, if rain prevents any play or the minimum five overs per side cannot be completed by the cut-off time (around 10:56 PM), the game is declared a "No Result." Both teams earn one point each.

For PBKS, this would take them to 14 points, offering a small buffer over Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals (both on 12)-but it would mark their second abandoned game, capping maximum points at 18 even with two remaining wins. Their NRR would stay unchanged, potentially hurting tie-breaker scenarios. MI would move to 7 points, which changes little for the already-eliminated side.

A washout would be a mixed outcome for Punjab: it secures a point without the risk of defeat but denies them a chance to boost NRR or build momentum ahead of crucial clashes against RCB and LSG. As the evening unfolds, all eyes are on the Dharamsala skies.
