Adverse weather conditions are expected in Tajikistan from May 18 to 20, including rising river water levels, mudflows, and deteriorating air quality in several regions of the country.
According to forecasts, on May 18 and 19, due to precipitation, water levels are expected to rise in the Zeravshan, Obihingob, Vakhsh, Yakhsu, and Kyzylsu rivers – the southern one, as well as in the rivers flowing down the southern slopes of the Gissar Range.
Furthermore, mudslides are forecast for most regions of the republic from May 18 to 20. The eastern part of the Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Region will be an exception.
Also on May 18, deteriorating air quality is expected in southern cities and districts of the Khatlon region. This will be caused by meteorological factors, including a dust storm and haze coming from the south and southwest.
According to weather forecasters, the concentration of suspended dust particles in the air is expected to increase, including particles measuring 10 microns (PM-10) and 2.5 microns (PM-2.5).
Citizens are advised to take precautions during periods of adverse weather conditions.
