The rainfall resulted in 150 electricity feeders tripping in the city, plunging different areas of the city into darkness from Monday night. According to Lahore Electric Supply Company (Lesco) officials, work is underway to bring electricity feeders back online.  Moreover, the flow of traffic was severely affected as water accumulated in low-lying areas of the city.  A warning was also given out for Lahore airport due to the weather conditions, stating that routine flight operations may be affected. Rainwater also accumulated at DHQ hospital in Gujranwala with hospital officials saying work is underway to remove it.
