The monsoon in Pakistan, which has been ongoing for around three weeks, has now claimed more than 100 lives.

A further 250 people have been injured, and many have lost everything they own in collapsed houses.

Most of the victims are in the country's most populous province, Punjab, where persistent heavy rainfall has caused severe flooding in many places.

The monsoon season typically lasts from July to September in this region and neighbouring India. During this period, widespread flooding occurs repeatedly.

Did you know?

Due to the monsoon, an average of 11,870 litres of rain per square metre falls in the Indian village of Mawsynram. That is a world record.

The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
