Islamabad Cheer up Islooites, as a rain spell is in sight, promising a much-needed respite from humid weather. According to Amjad Mehmood of the Pakistan Meteorological Department, widespread thundershowers with isolated heavy rainfall are expected in the capital during the next 48 hours. There is a greater likelihood of similar weather conditions occurring in Rawalpindi, Lahore, Gujranwala, Bahawalpur, Sahiwal and Hazara divisions, and Azad Jammu and Kashmir, too, during the period. Also, the rain will fall at scattered places in Mirpurkhas, Hyderabad, Sukkur, Malakand, Peshawar, Mardan, Kohat, Sargodha, Faisalabad, DG Khan and Multan divisions, Federally Administered Tribal Areas and Gilgit-Baltistan and at isolated places in Zhob and Kalat divisions.
