Separately, the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) issued an advisory prior to the expected rain, thunderstorms, and strong winds that were expected to occur in several regions of the nation from June 20th to 23rd.

A new wave of “rain, strong winds, and thunderstorms is expected to hit Gilgit-Baltistan, Kashmir, Punjab, and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa” at that time, hence the NDMA advised taking precautions.

Particularly in the previously “described areas, weak trees, mud structures, and shoddy buildings are at risk from strong winds, dust storms, and thunderstorms”.

“The public has been advised by the NDMA to park their cars in safe, covered spaces. It also advised people to be on guard because poor visibility during storms and high winds might cause accidents.”

All relevant institutions have been instructed by the NDMA to have the required plans in place to handle any chance of an emergency. In the meantime, the Pak NDMA Disaster Alert App advises the public to stay updated on meteorological conditions and possible danger.
