Answer:

Except at high elevations, temperatures in Pakistan are generally warm or hot because of dry tropical forest vegetation (desert).

Step-by-step explanation:

The Thar Desert covers a great area in Pakistan which contributes to high temperatures. The highest temperature recorded ranges from 38°C-53.5°C. The temperature is also variable; with high altitude areas recording high temperatures while the on the coast the sea breeze causes cooler temperatures.

The rest of the country reach 38°C and higher. In summer, there is a blowing hot dry wind called loo, which is cooled down by thunderstorms and dust storms. Trees shed leaves to avoid losing moisture. In the evening temperatures are cool.
