Clouds gathered in the evening, and precipitation began at 6:25pm, persisting for 30 minutes and reducing the temperature to 21 degrees Celsius. A Met Office official attributed the drop to a shallow westerly wave approaching the region, which may continue until Saturday night.

The official warned that partly cloudy weather with rain, wind, and thunderstorms was likely in isolated areas of upper Punjab, Islamabad, Kashmir, and Gilgit-Baltistan, while the rest of the country could expect dry weather.
