As for East Malaysia, Kota Kinabalu, Sandakan and Lahad Datu are expected to experience isolated rain for the next few days.

Similarly, several areas in Sarawak – like Kuching, Miri and Sibu – are also predicted to have isolated rain and thunderstorms during the weekend.

Having said that, it’s best to stay away from driving especially if the weather is very bad. Nonetheless, if you can’t avoid driving during the rain, here’s what you can do:
