The Pakistan Meteorological Department forecasts dust-thunderstorms in various parts of the country from June 2 to 5 due to a westerly wave approaching the upper regions.
The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has issued an important weather forecast for the upcoming days, warning that dust-thunderstorms are expected in several parts of the country between June 2 and 5. This prediction comes as a result of a westerly wave that is likely to approach the upper regions during this period.
According to PMD officials, the affected areas will primarily include the northern and western provinces such as Gilgit-Baltistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and parts of Punjab. The weather department has advised residents in these areas to take necessary precautions and prepare for potential disruptions caused by heavy rain and thunderstorms.
In a recent statement, PMD spokesperson Muhammad Usman Khan highlighted the importance of staying informed about the latest updates from meteorological authorities. He emphasized that drivers should exercise caution while traveling on highways and expressways, especially during peak hours when visibility might be reduced due to dust storms.
Local communities are also being urged to secure their properties against potential damage from strong winds and heavy rainfall. Utility companies have been alerted to prepare for possible disruptions in services, particularly in areas prone to flooding.
The PMD has set up a monitoring system to track the movement of the westerly wave closely and provide real-time updates to the public. Citizens are advised to follow official channels such as social media accounts and local news outlets for the most accurate information during this period.
As the country braces for these weather conditions, authorities are urging all stakeholders to collaborate in ensuring safety measures are in place to mitigate any adverse effects on daily life and infrastructure.
