Rain would continue in Murree over the next 24 hours and temperatures would fall further, the Met Office said on Saturday.

Intermittent rain, dark clouds and icy winds have already deepened the cold in the hill resort, which residents and visitors now describe as the start of winter.

The Met Office also predicted snowfall in the upper areas of Murree in the coming days as temperatures continue to drop.

Tourists from across the country have traveled to Murree now that the weather has turned pleasant, and crowds have gathered on the Mall Road, where visitors are enjoying the cold and the wind.

Some tourists told the broadcaster they had come specifically to see the cold weather and snowfall.

The district administration in Murree has become active in view of the expected snowfall and the growing number of visitors, according to the same report, and has held a series of administrative meetings.

The meetings are aimed at finalizing arrangements to provide facilities to tourists, keep traffic moving and respond to any emergency.

Murree is a hill station in Punjab, close to the capital Islamabad, and is one of the country's best-known destinations for visitors seeking cooler weather in winter.

Its Mall Road is the main commercial street and a common gathering point for tourists during the season.
