Yesterday, a meteorological system causing rains was to enter Pakistan between January 31 and February 1, providing cooler temperatures and relief from the current drought period, the Pakistani meteorological department (PMD) has planned.
According to the PMD, the dry time has prevailed through Punjab, resulting in a gradual increase in temperatures.
Lahore and several higher districts of Punjab are likely to receive light precipitation in the coming days, which could temporarily lower the temperature.
The approaching rain system should restore a certain winter cooling, reducing daytime heat.
However, meteorologists warn that climate change has shortened the duration of winter this year, leading to unusually hot afternoons and colder nights.
Lahore recorded a minimum temperature of 7 ° C today, with a maximum planned to reach 24 ° C.
