Scattered showers bring relief to city

Scattered showers brought a brief relief to the city on Monday evening after a hot and dry day.

Though light and patchy, the rain improved the weather in several areas across Lahore.

According to the Met Office, continental air was dominant over much of the country, accompanied by a shallow westerly wave affecting northern regions.

Forecasters expect mainly hot and dry conditions to persist in most areas, with intense heat over the plains.

However, isolated rain, wind or thunderstorms may occur in northeastern Punjab and the Potohar region.
