The Weather Bureau has released its predictions for the upcoming sacred month of Ramadan, forecasting a period of mild and agreeable weather across the country during the initial Ashra. The bureau suggests that the moon’s sighting is likely on March 10, signaling the commencement of Ramadan.
This potential moon sighting on March 10 has been highlighted by the Bureau’s Director General, underscoring the possibility of observing the moon during Ramadan in regions like Sindh and Punjab. This news has stirred excitement within the Muslim community as they prepare for the forthcoming month of fasting.
According to the Weather Bureau, the initial ten days of Ramadan are expected to be mild and enjoyable nationwide. However, Lahore’s weather on Tuesday was reported to be slightly unusual due to foggy mornings and the prevalence of chilly winds.
In addition to the weather forecast, there are alarming signs of a surge in dengue cases in Punjab, particularly in Lahore. In the past 24 hours, the province has reported 44 pneumonia cases, adding pressure on healthcare facilities already grappling with the epidemic.
As Ramadan approaches and dengue cases rise, the importance of intensifying public health efforts and mosquito eradication campaigns to curb the disease’s spread is underscored. It is recommended that authorities prioritize health safety measures to shield communities from health risks during this crucial time as citizens gear up for a month of fasting and prayers.
