As Pakistan navigates through varying weather conditions today, the Meteorological Department’s forecasts highlight a dynamic scenario across different regions. While some areas brace for persistent warmth and humidity, others await potential relief through scattered showers.
Lahore and Islamabad:
Both cities are set to experience warm and humid weather throughout the day.
Although no significant rainfall is expected, residents should remain prepared for occasional cloud cover that could moderate temperatures slightly.
Upper Punjab and Kashmir:
These regions may witness localized rainfall, providing relief from prevailing dry conditions.
The recent showers in these areas have already contributed to cooler temperatures and could continue intermittently.
Upper Khyber Pakhtunkhwa:
Predicts indicate that there would be a few showers in the upper Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
The weather here is greatly influenced by its topography which leads to different climatic patterns across the area where mountains receive more rain than the plains.
South-Eastern Sindh and North-East/South Balochistan
This type of precipitation helps moderate temperatures by cooling down hot humid conditions experienced along these coastal areas as well as deserts during summer time.
Recent Rainfall Effects
Within the past 24 hours, rains have occurred at several places throughout the country, such as Potohar, Islamabad, upper Punjab, upper Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Kashmir, Karachi city, and lower Sindh province, including northeastern/southern parts of Balochistan.
The effects have been mixed; it reduced temperature but caused problems like water clogging and traffic jams, especially in cities.
Advisory
People should keep informed about the local weather updates to prepare for any changes. While certain places may have cooler temperatures due to recent rains, others will still experience high heat indices. Therefore, staying hydrated and avoiding outdoor activities during peak heat hours are essential for personal safety.
