The Meteorological Department predicts that urban flooding will occur in various cities of Central and Upper Punjab.

It added that the Westerly wave is also likely to hit the upper parts of the country by Sunday.
The new weather system may cause heavy and moderate showers with windstorms in Kashmir, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Sargodha, Gujranwala, Lahore, Faisalabad, Malakand, Hazara, Peshawar, Mardan, Kohat, Bannu divisions from Friday.
Scattered rain and dust thundershowers are also likely in the isolated parts of Zhob, D.I.Khan, D.G.Khan, Multan, Bahawalpur, and Sahiwal from Sunday to Thursday.
