LAHORE (HRNW) \u2013 Sudden dark clouds brought heavy rain, thunder, and hailstorm activity to several areas of Lahore, providing much-needed relief from the intense heat.<\/p>\n

Rain accompanied by strong winds turned the weather pleasant in areas including Mall Road, Jail Road, and Gulberg.<\/p>\n

According to the Meteorological Department, the rain-producing weather system is relatively weak and the clouds are expected to clear soon, after which hot weather conditions are likely to return.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, on the instructions of the Managing Director of WASA, operational staff were directed to remain present in the field to ensure timely drainage of rainwater and prevent urban flooding.<\/p>\n
