Overview
- The Pakistan Meteorological Department says recent rain‑thunderstorms with gusty winds have continued and that more showers and gusty winds are expected to affect Lahore and many Punjab districts overnight and into the following day.
- PMD warns isolated heavy falls and hailstorms could occur, creating sudden, spotty damage rather than uniform rainfall across the province.
- The forecast lists widespread exposure across Rawalpindi, Murree, Gujranwala, Lahore, Faisalabad, Multan, Bahawalnagar and several other districts, signaling broad geographic risk for flash flooding and wind damage.
- Recent station reports back the active system: Islamabad (Saidpur) recorded 28 mm, Murree 22 mm and Rawalpindi (Shamsabad) 15 mm, while Lahore still saw a daytime high near 41°C with low evening humidity.
- The pattern is part of a broader unstable spell that began in mid‑June, so authorities and residents should expect further bursts of heavy rain, hail and gusty winds that could disrupt travel, damage crops and strain drainage in low‑lying areas.
