Monsoon currents have started to penetrate over the upper parts of Pakistan that will spread southward during midweek giving widespread showers over the entire country. Monsoon winds will continue to penetrate over the upper parts of Pakistan in the next couple of days that will grip most parts of Punjab & Khyber Pakhunkhwa provinces during midweek and Sindh & eastern Balochistan during the weekend. The intensity of monsoon currents is very likely to increase from midweek.
Monsoon winds will intensify over these places as the westward moving low pressure area originated in the Bay of Bengal is set to merge with the cyclonic circulation over Gujarat and adjoining areas during the next twenty four to forty eight hours. These developments would intensify the low pressure area and boost it to sail into Pakistan.
This system is likely to interact with the Western Disturbance passing over Pakistan and Jammu & Kashmir in India. The western part of Punjab and Jammu & Kashmir will also get rain due to this system during the next forty eight to seventy two hours. Pakistan had witnessed one of the biggest floods in its history when 5 million people were displaced during the same time last year.
