Several killed as flash floods sweep away dozens of people in Pakistan
Flash floods have killed at least nine people in northern Pakistan after pre-monsoon rains swept away dozens of individuals. District administrator Shehzad Mahboob said on Friday that the nine people who were killed were from one extended family of 16 who were visiting the area and having a picnic breakfast by the Swat River, in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province. Mahboob explained that children from the family were in the water taking photos when the flood occurred, relatives rushed in to save them, but were trapped in the deluge, which was exacerbated by the monsoon rains. Nine bodies had been recovered, with four members of the family still missing, while another four were rescued, Mahboob said. Earlier on Friday, Shah Fahad, a spokesperson for the provincial emergency service, said nearly 100 rescuers in various groups rescued 58 people and were looking for the tourists who had been swept away. Fahad called on the public to strictly adhere to earlier government warnings about a possible flash flood in the Swat River, a popular destination for tourists in the summer and Minister Shehbaz Sharif 'expressed his grief over the tourists' deaths', a statement from his office said. Sharif added that he had called on authorities to strengthen safety measures near rivers and streams. Meanwhile, according to rescue officials, at least 10 people were killed in rain-related incidents in eastern Punjab and southern Sindh provinces over the past 24 hours. Since the beginning of the week, heavy rains have battered parts of Pakistan, including blocking highways and damaging homes. According to weather forecasters, rains are expected to continue this week as the country's annual monsoon season, which runs from July through September, begins. However, weather forecasters are predicting less rain to fall in Pakistan during the monsoon season this year compared with 2022, when the intense rainfall flooded rivers, killing 1,739 people.

Heat returns to Philadelphia Saturday with summertime humidity; gusty evening storms are likely
Saturday turns up the heat in a big way, with highs in the upper 80s and summer humidity making a comeback. It's definitely going to feel like a classic beach day, at least for a while. The catch? We're under a marginal risk (Level 1/5) from the Storm Prediction Center, which means there's potential for strong to severe thunderstorms later in the day. The timing looks to be the evening, roughly 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., and storms could bring heavy rain, gusty winds and even some hail. CBS Philadelphia So if you're making plans – whether it's backyard barbecues or boardwalk rides in Wildwood or Ocean City – aim to do them earlier in the day and be ready to pivot indoors if those storms develop. Sunday stays hot, with highs near 90, but it won't feel quite as muggy. Whether you're staying in the city or relaxing down the shore, it's shaping up to be a solid day to soak up the sun. The breeze off the water will help a bit at the beach, and overall, it looks like a quieter day weather-wise before the low 90s and storms return on Monday. Fourth of July Forecast Next week will be fairly similar day to day with heat, humidity and pop-up storms from time to time. Looking ahead to Friday, your July 4th plans should be rain-free if models hold. Our NEXT Weather team will keep you posted. Here's your 7-day forecast: CBS News Philadelphia Saturday: P.M. thunderstorm. High 89, Low 68. Sunday: Partly sunny. High 90, Low 73. Monday: Back to the 90s. High 91, Low 72. Tuesday: Thunderstorms are likely. High 88, Low 76. Wednesday: Mostly sunny. High 89, Low 72. Thursday: Mostly sunny. High 89, Low 71. Friday: Mostly sunny. High 89, Low 69.
