The Malaysian Meteorological Department (MetMalaysia) in a statement reported by the Sun daily said that these weather conditions also have the potential to cause flash floods and damage to unstable infrastructure.
It is also reported that these crazy weather conditions would occur in the evening and early nights in most states on the west coast and the interior of the peninsula. The west coast of Sabah, as well as western and central parts of Sarawak, will also face similar situations.
“During this period, the country will experience weak monsoon winds from various directions which are conducive for the formation of cumulonimbus clouds,” the statement said.
MetMalaysia also posted a guide for the weather on its official Facebook page. The public is advised to be alert during these times and take note of the weather forecasts as well as warnings issued by MetMalaysia.
