Lahore witnessed a historic deluge on Thursday, with 350 millimetres of rain in three hours, surpassing a 44-year record. This heavy rainfall inundated streets and homes and disrupted power throughout the city.

The Pakistan Meteorological Department anticipates continued torrential rains in the country’s upper regions from August 1 to 6, driven by strong monsoon currents.
