KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 3 — The Malaysian Meteorological Department (MetMalaysia) has issued an evening thunderstorm warning across large swathes of Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah, and Sarawak until 8.00pm today, a day after torrential downpours triggered widespread flash floods across the Klang Valley.
The weather alert, released at 4.10pm, warns of severe thunderstorms, heavy rainfall, and gusty winds, placing commuters and low-lying neighbourhoods on high alert following Monday’s evening travel chaos.
In the peninsula, the advisory blankets the entirety of Perlis and Kedah, alongside all three mainland districts of Penang: Seberang Perai Utara, Seberang Perai Tengah, and Seberang Perai Selatan. Perak faces widespread disruption spanning 12 districts, including Hulu Perak, Kuala Kangsar, Kinta, Kampar, Muallim, Batang Padang, Larut Matang, Selama, Kerian, Perak Tengah, Hilir Perak, and Bagan Datuk.
