The Meteorological Department has issued district-wise weather warnings for Punjab covering the period from March 29 to April 1, 2026. According to this warning, various parts of the state are likely to experience lightning, thunderstorms, and rainfall over the next three days, with wind speeds potentially reaching between 40 and 60 kilometers per hour.
Weather conditions are expected to be particularly disruptive on March 29 and 30, for which an ‘Orange Alert’ has been issued for several districts—signaling that residents need to exercise caution.
