Jhelum, Chenab to be in high flood
LAHORE: River Jhelum is in high flood at Head Rasool, while River Chenab is likely to be in the same at Head Marrala, Khanqi, and Qadirabad, Geo News reported.

Flood forecast division has warned that a massive flood tide may pass Head Rasool somewhere between 9pm-10am (Friday night and Saturday morning). This could cause some nearby low-lying areas to come under floodwater, it added.

People dwelling next to either bank of River Jhelum have been strongly asked to take precautionary measures.

On the other hand River Chenab is likely to experience high flood at Marrala, Khanqi, and Qadirabad between 8-4pm (Friday night and Saturday morning).
