Light rain accompanied with hailstorm lashed different parts of the federal capital on Monday and turned the weather cold. The rain and hailstorm started at day time and continued for a while bringing the temperatures down by a few notches.
The cold weather after rain reminded the people not to plan packing their warm staff, blankets and quilts due to unpredictable weather conditions. Along with rain, the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has warned of unusually hot and dry weather to persist in the southern regions of the country.
According to the synoptic situation, a shallow westerly wave was affecting upper parts of the country and may persist till next 24 hours. On Monday, mainly dry weather is expected in most parts of the country.—INP
