Punjab weather forecast: PMD predicts light rain in THESE districts!

LAHORE: A new weather system has entered Punjab, with the sky covered in clouds and light rain is likely in select districts including Gujranwala, Rawalpindi and Potohar.

According to the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD), while the province is mostly covered in clouds, the chances of significant rainfall are minimal. Lahore, in particular, is likely to experience only light drizzle, if any, with the passage of the system.

The weather system is forecast to exit Pakistan by tonight, further reducing the chances of rain across Punjab. Meanwhile, Lahore recorded a minimum temperature of 8 degrees Celsius, with a maximum likely to reach 24 degrees Celsius. The city is facing dry and cold weather, and meteorologists have predicted that this winter season could be below normal due to lack of sufficient rainfall.

Despite the cloud cover, the PMD has advised residents to brace for relatively stable weather conditions, with no significant drop in temperatures expected.

Lahore and several districts across Punjab witnessed a change in weather yesterday, with cold and cloudy conditions persisting. The PMD has forecast cloudy weather for the next two days, maintaining the current pattern of minimal rainfall and mild temperatures.

Gujranwala, Rawalpindi and Potohar may witness light rain, however, the overall weather trend suggests continuation of cloudy conditions rather than heavy rain. Experts note that the current system provides only a short respite from the winter cold before clear skies return in the coming days.
