There is also a possibility of urban flooding in low-lying areas of northeastern Punjab. The PMD has cautioned that landslides may disrupt roads in vulnerable hilly areas of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Murree, Galliyat, Kashmir, and Gilgit-Baltistan during the rain spell. Moreover, heavy downpours, windstorms, and lightning may disrupt daily routines, potentially leading to incidents such as roof or wall collapses in slum areas and damage to weak structures like electric poles, billboards, vehicles, and solar panels. Farmers are advised to plan their activities according to the weather forecast, while travellers and tourists are urged to exercise caution and adjust their plans according to weather conditions to avoid any untoward situations during the wet spell. The Met Office has directed all concerned authorities to remain vigilant and take necessary measures to mitigate risks.
