More rainfall expected tonight: PMD
Earlier today, Pakistan Metrological Department (PMD) shared that more rain accompanied by wind and thundershowers are expected in Sindh, southern and northeastern Balochistan, South Punjab, and northern parts of Pakistan.
The weather changes will be due to a well-marked low pressure system over east Rajasthan in India, which will likely move in the northwest direction and approach Sindh tonight, a statement by the Met office read.
Following this weather system, isolated heavy rainfall with wind and thundershowers are also expected in Khyber Pakhtunkhuwa, Punjab, Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan from August 23 to 25 with occasional gaps.
