The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has issued a new warning for another hailstorm in Islamabad, just a day after a severe weather event caught residents off guard and caused widespread damage across the federal capital.
PMD official confirmed that while the expected hailstorm may be less intense than Wednesday’s, it could still bring dust storms, strong winds, and sporadic hail across various parts of the city.
The recent storm caused major disruptions, shattering car windows, damaging property, and even impacting a portion of the Faisal Mosque.
After the recent hailstorm in Islamabad, several roads and green belts were coated with ice, creating both beauty and chaos for citizens.
Experts stated that the unusual weather is a result of sudden temperature fluctuations during an ongoing heatwave, which has disrupted seasonal patterns and created conditions ripe for hail formation.
While tomorrow’s storm may be milder, residents are urged to remain cautious.

The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has advised people to avoid parking vehicles under trees or in open spaces and to secure loose items outdoors.
The PMD also warned that strong gusts could pose safety risks to pedestrians and drivers alike.
Authorities are closely monitoring the system and are expected to provide real-time updates in the event of rapid weather changes.
Islamabad’s weather has been unpredictable this week, reflecting a growing trend of climate volatility being experienced across the country.
