The day temperatures are likely to remain unusually high in most parts of the country during the next few days.

Day temperatures in Islamabad, Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Kashmir, Sindh, and Eastern Balochistan are expected to rise significantly above normal.

Occasional dust storms or dust-raising winds may also occur in the afternoon or evening during the period.

The heat wave is likely to be followed by a rain spell in the upper and central parts of the country.

All concerned authorities have been particularly advised to remain alert during the forecast period.
