These weather conditions are likely to cause both riverine and flash flooding in various regions of the country


Islamabad: The National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) has forecast moderate to heavy monsoon rainfall and issued flood advisory for next two days in view of the enhanced monsoon activity across the country.
In a statement, the National Emergencies Operation Center of NDMA said the moisture inflow from the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea, combined with a strong westerly wave, is expected to result in moderate to heavy monsoon rainfall till Thursday.
These weather conditions are likely to cause both riverine and flash flooding in various regions of the country.
According to the forecast, increased water flows are expected in all major rivers including Kabul, Indus, Jhelum, and Chenab.
Currently, low flood levels are being observed at Tarbela, Kalabagh, and Chashma on the Indus River, while Taunsa is also expected to reach the low flood mark.
River Chenab is likely to experience low flood levels at Marala and Khanki stations.
River Kabul at Nowshera is expected to rise to low flood levels, while Swat and Panjkora Rivers, along with their associated streams and nullahs, may swell due to rainfall in their catchment areas.
River Jhelum, along with its tributaries, is expected to experience elevated inflows, resulting in localized flash floods.
Inflows at Mangla Dam on River Jhelum are projected to reach the low flood limit.
In northeastern Punjab, nullahs originating from the Pir Panjal range may experience significant increases in water levels, possibly reaching medium flood intensity. Hill torrents in Dera Ghazi Khan and Rajanpur districts may once again become active, generating medium to high flows.
In Balochistan, nullahs and seasonal streams in the northeastern districts including Jhal Magsi, Kachi, Sibi, Qila Saifullah, Zhob, and Musakhel are also likely to experience high flows.
In Gilgit-Baltistan, the Hunza and Shigar rivers may see increased water discharge, with flash flooding possible in their tributaries, including Hispar, Khunjerab, Shimshal, Braldu, Hushe and Saltoro Rivers.
Residents living near rivers, streams, and nullahs are advised to stay vigilant for sudden increases in water levels, particularly at night or during periods of intense rainfall.
The NDMA is closely monitoring the evolving flood situation and remains in constant coordination with Provincial Disaster Management Authorities and District Disaster Management Authorities to ensure timely preparedness and response measures.
