Pakistan is bracing for a severe heatwave from June 18 to June 20, 2025, as the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) warns of dangerously high temperatures across the plains. With risks of heatstroke, dehydration, and economic strain, authorities urge immediate precautions.

The PMD predicts “very hot conditions” across Pakistan’s plains, including Punjab, Sindh, and Balochistan, from June 18 to June 20, 2025. Temperatures are expected to exceed 40°C in many areas, with some regions potentially reaching 45–50°C. High humidity may worsen the heat index, increasing health risks. The PMD advises checking its website for real-time updates and local alerts.

The PMD stated, emphasising the situation’s urgency, “Residents must take immediate precautions to avoid heat-related illnesses. “

The heatwave presents significant risks to vulnerable populations, including an increased likelihood of dehydration and heatstroke due to weakened thermoregulation. Farmers, labourers, and vendors are particularly affected as they endure prolonged exposure to extreme heat. Additionally, limited access to cooling, adequate shelter, and clean water exacerbates these risks. Pre-existing medical conditions, such as heart disease, may also worsen under these conditions.

The heatwave is likely to strain Pakistan’s resources, with surging power demand potentially causing outages, as seen in past heatwaves. Crops may suffer from soil moisture loss, threatening agricultural yields, while livestock in arid regions face increased mortality risks. The PMD notes that water shortages could intensify, particularly in rural areas, impacting both human and animal welfare.

PMD urge residents to stock water and avoid midday travel, reflecting public concern. Urban areas like Karachi and Lahore are setting up cooling centres, while rural communities face challenges due to limited infrastructure. The PMD’s timely warning, backed by past heatwave data, aims to minimise casualties through proactive measures.
