*A sweating heatwave had gripped the southern parts of the country especially the Port city of Karachi.
*Western disturbance ’22’ entered the northern areas on March 11 and left the country that night, it brought showers to the northern areas and caused temperature to decrease in the southern areas. It caused a hailstorm in Mardan, shockingly the system caused no rainfall in Islamabad even though nearby areas received rain. WD ’22’ was not very active and was mostly weak.

It did not rain but the temperature is mild and nice weather.But WD 23 will make it a little cold.The Margalla hills will become cold and wet and the rain will make it lush green.Will there be any snowfall on the hills.
Not in Margalla hills.

Snowfall in Multan? If you are from Multan(or even Pakistan) you should know that snowfall doesn’t occur in Multan..
on 2011 the snowfall in multan
Hmmm it may be hailstorm as far as i know snowfall doesn’t occur in Multan baaki babar bhai will tell you more about this…
Yes you are right Daniyal.
daniyal you are forgetting
Snowfall cannot occur in Multan, it was a hailstorm. Elevation does matter.
Multan lowest temperature is about 5 to 10 degrees which is high for the making of snowfall and it is in the plains.Islamabad on the other hand is on the edge of hilly areas and temperature goes below 0 degrees till -2 to -3 degrees and Margalla hills itself are mountain rising from 600 meters to 1500 meters.with average altitude of 1000 meters and temperature there goes till -6 to -7 degrees.SO they get snowfall every year.Sir babar please also tell about pir sohawa in your forecast.
Expected to be like Islamabad.
