Precautions urged against hot weather

Weather system responsible for rainfall dissipates

A weather system responsible for recent rainfall across Punjab has dissipated, leading to a rise in temperatures as strong sunshine returned across the province on Sunday morning.

According to the Meteorological Department, hot and dry weather is expected to prevail across Punjab over the next 24 hours following the end of the rain-producing system.

Weather experts report a gradual increase in temperatures, with the minimum temperature expected to remain around 28°C, while the maximum temperature could reach 38°C.

The Met Office stated that no new rain-bearing weather system is expected to enter Punjab in the coming days, raising the likelihood of more intense heat.

Authorities advised citizens to limit unnecessary exposure to direct sunlight, stay hydrated and take precautionary measures to avoid heat-related illnesses.
