The National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) issued a weather alert on Friday, forecasting unstable conditions across several regions of Pakistan from May 1 to 7. The warning includes heavy rainfall, windstorms, thunderstorms, lightning, and isolated hailstorms in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Gilgit-Baltistan, Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK), Upper and Central Punjab, northern Balochistan, and southern Sindh.
The adverse weather conditions are attributed to moisture influx from the east and the Arabian Sea, rising temperatures and humidity. Authorities have cautioned that low-lying areas may experience waterlogging, while hilly regions risk landslides.
The NDMA has advised citizens to stay vigilant, follow safety precautions, and use the Pak NDMA Disaster Alert App for real-time updates. The authority is monitoring the situation closely to ensure a coordinated response and public safety.
