Dust storms and thunderstorms are also probably in Islamabad, Rawalpindi and several districts of the Punjab Central and Northern, notably Lahore, Sargodha, Faisalabad and Gujranwala, in particular the evening of April 16 and 18. Isolated thunderstorms can occur during this period.
The districts of southern Punjab, notably Dera Ghazi Khan, Rajanpur, Multan and Bahawalpur, should experience storms of dust and winds originally on April 18 and 19.
The authorities warned of potential damage due to the wind, hail and lightning. “Wind storms, hailstorms and lightning can damage loose structures such as electric posts, trees, vehicles and solar panels,” said the Met Office.
