It’s not just another rainy week. The sky is preparing for a wild show — and it’s not the kind anyone wants to enjoy. According to the latest alert from the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD), heavy rains are ready to hit from August 4 to 7, and they could bring urban flooding in multiple cities.
The target?
- Kashmir
- Gilgit-Baltistan
- Khyber Pakhtunkhwa
- Islamabad and many parts of Punjab
A powerful westerly wave will hit around August 5, making the system even more dangerous. Some areas may get isolated heavy downpours, flooding streets and low-lying neighborhoods.
What’s at Risk?
Think water everywhere.
Think traffic stuck for hours.
Think people stranded.
That’s what urban flooding looks like — and cities need to act before it’s too late.
While upper Pakistan is bracing for rain, Balochistan stays hot and humid — except for a chance of light showers in the northeast and south on August 6. Sindh may see some rain in lower areas, but overall, the heat and stickiness will continue.
What Should You Do?
- Stay updated on weather news
- Avoid unnecessary travel during storms
- Keep emergency supplies ready
- Listen to alerts from local authorities
The government has already activated emergency teams. But your own safety depends on how prepared you are. Don’t wait for water to rise — act now.
