LAHORE, March 21: It was dry and bearably hot in the Punjab capital on Sunday with speckles of clouds which did nothing to provide any relief to the people braving an early summer.
The maximum temperature was 35.1 degrees C and the minimum 17 degrees C with only 47 per cent humidity in the morning and 30 per cent in the evening. It remained partly cloudy but the upper air wind moved away the clouds.
The local Met office expected partly cloudy weather in the plains of the province during the next 24 hours. It said the weak westerly system which was expected to give rain in the northern areas and in Rawalpindi division was also swept away by a strong jet stream.
There were only traces of rain in some hilly areas and while no chances of any significant rain in any part of the country during the next three days. The Met office said from now onwards the maximum temperature would start gradually rising, moving the country towards the bloom of the summer.
