Lahore, the capital of Punjab, got a lot of relief from the sweltering heat and humidity as rains lashed the city bringing down the temperature and making the weather pleasant.

Dense dark clouds blanketed the skyline early today while intermittent rain accompanied by cool winds encouraged thousands of Lahoris to step outside and enjoy the refreshing change.

The city’s temperature has dropped to 28 degrees Celsius and is expected to touch a maximum of 33 degrees Celsius during the day, the Meteorological Department said. Cool winds blowing at around 20 km/h further reduced the heat, making conditions significantly more comfortable in the provincial capital.

The PMD has forecast more rain in the next 24 hours, with cloudy skies expected in the city. Officials said the current spell of monsoon rains is likely to continue till July 13, raising hopes that the pleasant weather will continue for several more days.

As fresh rains are expected, the district administration of Lahore has activated emergency measures to prevent urban flooding and ensure smooth drainage across the city.

WASA Lahore and other departments have been put on high alert. Emergency teams have been directed to be on 24-hour standby while field staff have been deployed on major roads, underpasses and other flood-prone areas to ensure immediate drainage of rainwater.

The combination of refreshing weather and a Sunday holiday brought a dramatic change to life across Lahore, with thousands of residents leaving their homes to take advantage of the cooler conditions. Desi breakfast restaurants also saw an unusual rush, with people queuing up to relish Lahori delicacies before heading out for leisure activities.

Residents said the welcome change in weather provided much-needed relief after days of constant heat and humidity. Many people hailed the cool breeze, cloudy skies, and light rain as the perfect opportunity to spend quality time outdoors with loved ones.
