Prepare for floods: MetMalaysia issues early monsoon warning

PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Meteorological Department (MetMalaysia) has issued an early monsoon warning throughout Malaysia that is expected to cause recurring periods of heavy rain and turbulent winds starting next Monday (Nov 7) until March next year.

MetMalaysia said that the annual North-East Monsoon would trigger rainfall sooner than was previously predicted and would cause at least four to six periods of constant heavy rain during the five-month-long monsoon season.
