Islamabad: A strong westerly weather system is likely to impact the upper catchments of all major rivers, as well as Islamabad, Punjab, and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa regions, from Sunday to Tuesday.
According to Radio Pakistan, this system is expected to bring moderate rainfall with chances of isolated heavy rainfall, thunderstorms, and strong winds.
In the upper catchment areas of the River Jhelum, medium to high flows are anticipated due to expected heavy rainfall. Similarly, moderate to high rainfall in the Ravi and Sutlej catchments may increase flows in the eastern rivers, possibly leading to medium-level flood in vulnerable structures. In addition, flows in the western tributaries of Swat, Panjkora, and Kabul rivers are also likely to rise.
