The Met Office on Wednesday said more rains are expected in the flooded areas of lower Sindh in the next seven days. According to its fresh weather advisory, the office predicts widespread monsoon rains in the country during next seven days. It says monsoon is likely to remain active in Pakistan during the next seven days that would produce widespread rains with isolated heavy falls in different parts of the country.
Widespread rains and thundershowers with isolated heavy falls are expected in Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Kashmir. Similarly, scattered rains and thundershowers with isolated heavy falls are likely to hit Sindh and eastern parts of Balochistan during next four to five days, the advisory says. According to the Met Office heavy falls may cause urban and flash flooding in these areas and the flooded areas of lower Sindh would receive more rains and thundershowers during the current week.
Due to frequent heavy falls in the catchment areas of eastern rivers of Pakistan, the water level may further rise in the Sutlej and Chenab rivers, generating low and medium level flooding in some of the areas during the coming few days, it warns.
