The majority of areas are expected to experience hot and dry weather, while isolated thunderstorms and rain are forecast for the northern regions, according to the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD).
In the capital, Islamabad, and surrounding areas, the sky is expected to remain partly cloudy, with a chance of rain accompanied by strong winds and lightning in some locations.
Hot and dry weather will continue to dominate across Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan, and Punjab.
However, showers are expected in northeastern Punjab, the Pothohar region, Kashmir, upper Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Gilgit-Baltistan.
Areas including Murree, Galyat, Rawalpindi, Attock, Chakwal, and others could witness rain.
Parts of Lahore, Sheikhupura, Okara, and Sargodha may also experience gusty winds and thunderstorms. In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, districts like Dir, Swat, and Peshawar are among those expected to receive rain.
In Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan, partly cloudy skies will prevail, with rain and thunderstorms forecast in some places.
Recent heavy rainfall has left Karachi’s streets in a dire state, with key roads caving in and neighbourhood streets becoming nearly impassable. The damage has severely disrupted traffic and created dangerous conditions for residents.
In Shah Faisal Colony, large potholes from Fauji Foundation Hospital to Number Three have slowed traffic, while local shopkeepers struggle with dust and debris. The situation is equally bad from Number Three to Number One, with the road to Malir River Bridge becoming uneven.
Major streets such as Pathrowala Road and Asif Road have also been damaged, and in Clifton Block-2, a road collapse has disconnected parts of the city. Similar conditions are seen on Jehangir Road near Teen Hatti, where a newly-built road has been destroyed by rain.
Korangi's link road to Landhi is nearly unusable due to potholes and overflowing sewers, causing road accidents. Meanwhile, a 24-inch sewage line beneath Tariq Road collapsed, adding to the chaos.
University Road, already affected by BRT Red Line construction, has become a bottleneck for motorists, with severe traffic jams near Safari Park caused by standing rainwater and sewage.
