Islamabad (Manend News) Pre-Monsoon Rains Predicted Across the Country from June 20 to 23: PDMA Issues Safety Advisory. The Provincial Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) has issued a weather advisory on Thursday following the Pakistan Meteorological Department’s (PMD) forecast of pre-monsoon rains expected to affect the country, including Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, from June 20 to 23, 2025. The rains are likely to occur with occasional gaps, triggered by moist currents from the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea, along with a westerly wave approaching the region. This weather pattern is anticipated to bring widespread rainfall, gusty winds, thunderstorms, and isolated hailstorms in various parts of the province.
In light of this forecast, the PDMA has urged all relevant departments and local administrations to stay on alert and implement necessary precautionary measures aimed at preventing loss of life and minimizing damage to infrastructure, crops, and livestock. The authority has already circulated detailed safety instructions to district administrations and line departments to ensure timely and coordinated preparedness and response.
Travelers and commuters, especially on national and provincial highways passing through at-risk areas, are being cautioned about possible adverse conditions.
The PDMA emphasized the need for real-time monitoring and communication, urging all departments to maintain contact with the Provincial Emergency Operations Center (PEOC), which remains operational 24/7.
The authority has also encouraged citizens to stay vigilant and report any emergencies via the toll-free helpline 1700
