In Rawalpindi, Attock, Jhelum, Chakwal, Murree, and Galiyat, rain accompanied by strong winds and thunderstorms is anticipated.
Currently, water levels in Punjab’s rivers such as Chenab, Ravi, Jhelum, and Sutlej are normal. However, a flood warning has been issued specifically for the Chenab River at Marala due to the potential for moderate to high flooding.
