Strong monsoon currents from the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal are expected to move into the upper and central regions of the country starting August 9. As a result, widespread intermittent monsoon rains, with some areas experiencing heavy downpours, are likely across Pakistan during this period.<\/p>\n

Heavy downpours could lead to urban flooding in low-lying areas of Islamabad\/Rawalpindi, Gujranwala, Lahore, Sheikhupura, Kasur, Sialkot, Sargodha, Faisalabad, Nowshera, and Peshawar between August 9 and 12.<\/p>\n

Landslides may disrupt traffic in the vulnerable hilly regions of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Murree, Galliyat, Kashmir, and Gilgit-Baltistan during this period. Additionally, downpours, windstorms, and lightning could impact daily routines and potentially damage weak structures such as billboards and solar panels.<\/p>\n
