Hot and dry weather is expected to continue across most parts of Pakistan during the next 24 hours, according to the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD). In addition, plain areas are likely to experience very hot conditions as temperatures remain elevated.
However, some northern and hilly regions may receive isolated rain accompanied by gusty winds and thunderstorms during the afternoon.
Heat to Persist in Islamabad and Surrounding Areas
The weather outlook indicates that Islamabad and nearby areas will remain hot and dry throughout the day. At the same time, skies are expected to stay partly cloudy.

Nevertheless, weather conditions may shift in selected upper areas during the afternoon. Isolated rain-wind and thunderstorm activity is expected in Dir, Swat, Kohistan, Abbottabad, Mansehra and Parachinar.
As a result, people living in these regions could witness temporary relief from the prevailing heat.

However, isolated rain-wind and thunderstorms may develop during afternoon hours in selected districts.
These areas include Murree, Galiyat, Jhelum, Lahore, Sheikhupura, Sialkot, Narowal and surrounding locations.
Although rainfall activity is expected to remain limited, changing conditions may briefly reduce temperatures in affected areas.
Sindh to Experience Very Hot Conditions
