The Malaysian Meteorological Department has issued a weather alert for seven states on the west coast of the peninsula. 

Selangor, Negeri Sembilan, Malacca, Johor, Kedah, Penang, and Perak are expected to experience thunderstorms and strong winds.

As locals in Penang were recovering from a heavy downpour, an unusual visitor appeared. Right after the rain stopped, residents spotted a massive python slithering across the road. 

The reptile had emerged from hiding after the thunderstorm but was safely captured by locals.

Stay tuned for further updates on weather conditions and any more unexpected encounters with nature. Your safety remains a priority.
