The Meteorological Department has predicted that later today, rain, wind, and thunder may be experienced in Islamabad.

Balochistan’s weather is predicted to stay extremely hot, with dusty winds predicted to blow in the northern areas. Similar to this, Sindh’s majority of the districts will see high temperatures, with the top districts seeing very intense heat. Dusty winds are probably also going to be experienced in Sindh’s coastal regions.

Dusty winds are predicted to blow throughout Sindh’s coastal regions, according to the Met Department. According to the report, temperatures are predicted to surge to previously unheard-of heights in a number of locations, with 52 degrees Celsius predicted in Nawabshah and Mohenjodaro.

With temperatures expected to reach 49 degrees, Bahawalpur, DG Khan, and Multan will also face extreme heat. The temperature in Lahore is expected to soar to 46 degrees, in Islamabad to 41 degrees, and in Karachi to a comparatively chilly 38 degrees.
