The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has issued a comprehensive weather advisory for the period of May 27 to May 31, 2025, highlighting a mix of severe weather conditions across the country.

🌩️ Rain and Thunderstorms in Upper and Central Regions

Starting from the night of May 27, upper and central parts of Pakistan are expected to experience windstorms and rain-thunderstorms, with occasional breaks. This activity is attributed to moist currents penetrating these regions and a westerly wave anticipated to enter the upper parts of the country on May 28

Affected Areas:

• Khyber Pakhtunkhwa: Peshawar, Swat, Abbottabad, Mansehra, Dir, Kohistan, Malakand

• Punjab: Lahore, Rawalpindi, Murree, Attock, Gujranwala, Sialkot, Faisalabad, Jhelum, Chakwal, Mianwali

• Islamabad and Potohar Region

• Gilgit-Baltistan and Kashmir

These areas may experience isolated heavy rainfall, hailstorms, and lightning, posing risks to outdoor activities and travel plans.

🌬️ Dust Storms and Windstorms in Southern Regions

Southern parts of the country, including Balochistan and southern Punjab, are forecasted to encounter dust storms and strong winds during this period. These conditions may lead to reduced visibility and potential damage to infrastructure.

🔥 Heatwave Conditions in Sindh

Sindh province continues to experience extreme heat, with temperatures soaring up to 46°C. Karachi, in particular, is facing high humidity levels, making the heat more oppressive. Residents are advised to stay hydrated and avoid unnecessary exposure to the sun.

⚠️ Public Advisory

The PMD urges the public to:

• Exercise Caution: Avoid outdoor activities during thunderstorms and dust storms.

• Stay Informed: Keep abreast of the latest weather updates through official PMD channels.

• Protect Infrastructure: Secure loose structures and items that could be affected by strong winds.

• Health Precautions: In heat-affected areas, ensure adequate hydration and limit sun exposure, especially for vulnerable populations.
