PMD Predicts Below-Average Rainfall This Winter

The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has forecasted below-average rainfall across the country this winter. According to Chief Meteorologist Sardar Sarfaraz Khan, the situation will be particularly dry in Balochistan, where no rainfall is expected throughout December.

He added that a rain system could develop in early January, potentially bringing some rain and snow to northern Balochistan. However, for the remainder of the winter, precipitation levels are predicted to stay below normal, which could have a negative impact on water resources and agriculture in the region.

Northern parts of Pakistan continue to experience heavy snowfall, creating a picturesque winter landscape. Quetta has reported temperatures dropping to as low as -4°C, with cold winds making their way down to Karachi, which is also feeling the chill.

The PMD has issued warnings about severe cold conditions lasting at least until December 14, with cold winds affecting areas from Karachi to Khyber.

The northern regions, including Malam Jabba, Kalam in Swat, and Murree, are experiencing significant snowfall. While Murree briefly had a break, tourists were still able to enjoy the views.
