Weather scorecard – Lahore, other cities in ‘nervous forties’

LAHORE – Due to the effects of climate change, much of the nation is expected to see temperatures exceeding 40 degrees Celsius over the next few days, following prolonged periods of rain.

Rainfall last week in Lahore helped to break the scorching and brought pleasant weather.

Now when the weather is clear and sunny, a heatwave is beginning. According to meteorologists, Lahore will see a minimum temperature of about 26 degrees Celsius and a maximum temperature of 42 degrees Celsius on Wednesday.

There is 60 percent humidity and a five kilometer per hour breeze, according to the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD).

With an average value of 182, Lahore is the second most impacted city in terms of haze.

The city may see temperatures of 43 degrees Celsius or higher in the next days, according to Chief Meteorologist Shahid Abbas.

According to the PMD, extremely hot conditions will predominate in the central and southern regions, while isolated locations in the central districts of Balochistan are expected to see rain, wind, or thunderstorms in the evening and at night.

Dadu continued to be the nation’s hottest spot on Tuesday, with highs reaching 47 degrees Celsius.

Rain, farewell.

Rainfall over the last weekend lowered the temperature in Lahore and many other parts of the nation.

Rain fell on Friday in the twin cities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad. In Murree, Islamabad, and the surrounding areas, the heatwave was broken by showers and a hailstorm.

In Attock and certain other regions of Punjab, where the wind contributed to the lovely weather, it also poured.

People in the Mansehra district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa exhaled in relief as the rain dropped the temperature.

Before then, the majority of Punjab saw severe weather, with highs reaching up to 40 degrees Celsius.

There won’t be any more rain because temperatures in Sindh and Punjab’s cities are rising rapidly, raising concerns among meteorologists about the possibility of a heatwave.

Met Office notification

Occasionally, the Met Department releases advisories, asking individuals to take protective measures.

Aside from drinking more liquids to be hydrated and safe, it advises people to stay inside during the hottest part of the day, which is noon.
