Lahore has been experiencing pretty low temperatures with some pretty bad smog this winter. Which is why everyone breathed a sigh of relief when we had a series of unusually ear-splitting rumbling of thunder, followed by rainfall that left Lahore looking like a dream. But last night turned out to be pretty darn epic due to the hailstorm that turned the streets of Lahore into a mesmerizing white landscape.
For those of you who missed it, here’s what it looked like. This, ladies and gentleman, is Lahore.
Just look at that.
This is no joke, people!
This particular picture was shot at around 11:30 pm. The sky seems to be lit because it was taken right after some serious lightning.
Matlab, just look at these shots.
People got busy with their cameras and took some seriously astounding shots.
Just look at THAT!
UFF.
Damn!
Lahore, you beauty.
People even took to Twitter to share gorgeous pictures from their experience last night.
