Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) warned on Thursday about the possibility of another serious hailstorm in Islamabad, just a day after a strong storm caused broad damage in the capital and the surrounding areas.

Heavy rain and intense hail abused the city on Wednesday, crushed hundreds of car windows and reportedly causing partial damage to the faisal mosque. The greeting large enough to blanket streets and parks were observed in several parts of the city.

According to Met Office, such extreme weather events, including sudden hailstorms under continuous heat waves, could repeat itself. Meteorologists attributed the phenomenon to change seasonal patterns, exacerbated by climate change.

Senator Sherry Rehman, chairman of the Senate Standing Committee on Climate Change, described the hailstorm as part of an increasingly frequent pattern of climate -related disruptions throughout Asia. She referred to China’s recent serious orange wind warnings – its strongest in a decade – as evidence of the rising intensity of extreme weather throughout the region.

In a statement of LinkedIn, Rehman Pakistan’s response to climate challenges criticized it and described it as fragmented. “Our dams dry up, our crops wither, and yet climate adaptation is still a reflection,” she said.

She emphasized the need for a robust national strategy and warned that Pakistan is approaching an emergency in water and agriculture. While farmers receive basic weather advisers, she noticed, they often lack tools, training, and long -term support needed to adapt to the growing threat of climate shortage.
