September 6, 2024 – A fresh spell of rain is set to hit several areas across Pakistan, bringing a much-needed respite from the sweltering heat. According to recent weather forecasts, the new rain system is expected to start affecting the northern and central regions of the country, with varying intensities predicted throughout the week.
The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has issued warnings for possible heavy rainfall in areas including Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, parts of Punjab, and the northern regions of Sindh. Residents in these areas should prepare for potential disruptions and stay updated with the latest weather advisories.
This rain spell is anticipated to bring a mix of moderate to heavy showers, which could lead to localized flooding in low-lying areas. Authorities have advised the public to exercise caution, especially when traveling, and to avoid low-lying areas that are prone to waterlogging.
The new weather system comes as a welcome change after a prolonged dry spell, which has led to water shortages and agricultural stress in several parts of the country. The rain is expected to provide some relief to farmers and help replenish water sources.
As always, the PMD will continue to monitor the situation closely and provide updates as necessary. Residents are encouraged to stay informed through official channels and take necessary precautions to stay safe during the rain.
