Rain, snow coming for some areas amid drought-like conditions

A westerly system is making its way to some parts of Pakistan as the majority of the country grapples with the debilitating effects of a prolonged dry season. 

The westerly system is set to bring rain and snow to parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Gilgit-Baltistan, and Azad Jammu and Kashmir. 

Meteorologist Javed Memon has told Geo that while many areas may receive moderate to heavy snowfall and rain, Sindh will mostly remain dry. 

Rain and snowfall are predicted in Quetta, Ziarat, Zhob, Qila Saifullah, and Khuzdar. Light to moderate rain is also likely in Gwadar, Pasni, Turbat, and Ormara, with hailstorms in some parts of the province.

Parts of Punjab might receive a few substantial rain spells between February 19 and 21 in central and southern regions. Some areas may even get hailstorms. 

Islamabad is also predicted to receive a couple of spells of moderate rain in the same system.
