The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has issued a forecast predicting heavy rainfall across Islamabad, Rawalpindi, and several other regions tonight. This weather development is expected to bring significant downpours, impacting both urban and rural areas.
In addition to Islamabad and Rawalpindi, the PMD has indicated that cities such as Lahore, Sialkot, Gujranwala, and Peshawar are also likely to experience rainfall. These showers could vary in intensity but are expected to be widespread, affecting daily activities and potentially causing disruptions.
In a significant development, the meteorological authorities have issued warnings about the possibility of flooding in local streams and nullahs due to the anticipated heavy rains. This raises concerns for low-lying areas where water accumulation could lead to hazardous conditions for residents and commuters.
Meanwhile, the department has also cautioned about the risk of landslides in the mountainous regions of Murree, Galiyat, and Kashmir. The combination of intense rainfall and steep terrain increases the likelihood of such natural disasters, which could threaten infrastructure and safety in these vulnerable zones. Residents in these areas are advised to remain alert and take necessary precautions as the weather system moves through.
