Storm safety
Rain is often seen as a blessing, but it can sometimes lead to natural disasters. This year's monsoon rains have been particularly intense across Punjab, with Multan receiving a record-breaking 172 mm of rainfall. This surpasses the city's previous record of 134.5 mm set in 1976. Karachi is also experiencing heavy rains, leading to reports of deaths due to electrocution. These are just a few examples of the many incidents that have been occurring daily since the start of this monsoon season.
To stay safe during such extreme weather conditions, it is important to follow some key precautions: avoid using electrical devices outdoors in the rain, steer clear of electrical towers, and limit unnecessary travel when conditions are hazardous. Taking these steps can help prevent accidents and reduce the risk of harm.
