Cold Conditions Persist in Punjab and Islamabad
Islamabad and its surrounding areas are likely to remain cold and partly cloudy throughout Monday. No major rainfall is expected in the capital. Chilly winds may further lower the perceived temperature during morning and evening hours.
Most districts of Punjab will experience cold and partly cloudy weather. Light drizzle is possible in a few areas. These include Narowal, Sialkot, Jhelum, and nearby localities. The drizzle may be brief but could dampen roads.
Fog is expected during early morning hours in parts of upper Punjab. Sialkot and Narowal may see light to moderate fog. Visibility may drop during peak travel hours. Motorists are advised to drive carefully and use fog lights where necessary.
Hill stations in Punjab will remain colder. Murree and Galiyat are forecast to stay partly cloudy. Light rain or snowfall is possible in these areas. Tourists should remain cautious, as slippery roads may pose risks.
