The Meteorological Department predicts that the first ten days of Ramadan will be cool and pleasant across the nation, but in Lahore, conditions on Tuesday were said to be a little different due to foggy mornings and the predominance of cold winds.

Furthermore, concerning indications of an increase in dengue cases in Punjab, especially in Lahore, have surfaced in addition to the weather prediction. 44 instances of pneumonia have been reported in the province in the last 24 hours, adding to the strain on medical institutions already dealing with the epidemic.

Since the Arabian Sea winds that normally moderate the city’s climate were suspended, Karachi has been experiencing sweltering weather since the morning.

As per the Met Office, the city’s minimum temperature today was recorded at 27 degrees Celsius. Temperatures will feel between 40 and 42 degrees Celsius, with a maximum anticipated to hit 37 degrees, according to the weather office.

As reported by the Met Office, the port city’s humidity ratio rose to 77 percent.
