Lahore, the vibrant city in Pakistan, is preparing for a chilly winter as a cold wave takes hold of the region. The Meteorological Department has forecast heavy fog, which is expected to make the air thick and difficult to see through, especially in the evening and night. This could make traveling tricky for people moving around the city at night. While daytime temperatures will be mild, the fog and chilly weather at night will bring a more intense winter experience.
The current temperature in Lahore stands at 14°C, with humidity at 76%, making the atmosphere feel cooler than usual. The cold wave is expected to continue, with the temperature dropping to as low as 9°C during the night. The maximum temperature will likely hover around 16°C. Along with the fog, light rain and gusty winds are also possible, adding to the cold and damp conditions that will be felt across the city.
The fog will be more noticeable during the evening and night, and it’s expected to spread across the region. This will affect visibility, making it difficult for drivers to see clearly on the roads. The people of Lahore and nearby areas are urged to take extra care when traveling, especially at night when the fog could be densest.
In addition to the fog, other parts of Pakistan, such as Punjab, upper Sindh, and parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, will also experience moderate to heavy fog. These areas may also face a significant drop in visibility, which could affect both daily commutes and long-distance travel. Areas in the northern regions, including the hilly areas of Kashmir, are also expected to experience a mix of cold temperatures, light rain, and even snowfall.
The cold wave and heavy fog are also impacting the daily lives of the residents, making it harder to get around, particularly in the mornings and evenings when the fog is at its thickest. People living in hilly areas or those planning to visit nearby mountainous regions should keep an eye on weather reports and prepare for even colder conditions, possibly including snowfall.
As the cold wave continues to grip Lahore, residents should take measures to stay warm and safe. It’s important to wear warm clothes, especially during the night, when the temperatures can feel even colder. Travelers should plan ahead, considering the reduced visibility caused by the fog, and take necessary precautions to ensure their safety on the road.
