Though the sky is full of clouds, the Met Office has predicted that there will be no rain in Karachi today; however, some areas of the city may witness drizzle.
According to a private TV report, Chief Meteorologist Sardar Sarfaraz stated on Saturday that the weather is expected to remain cloudy today, while the city’s soothing sea breeze will remain blocked due to low air pressure in the Arabian Sea. He added that the city will not receive rain today, but there could be drizzle in some areas.
According to the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) advisory, the weather in the metropolis is expected to remain hot and humid in the next 24 hours.
The port city has been gripped by a severe heatwave for the past few days, with temperatures rising over 40°C and feeling like temperatures surging past 50°C. The minimum temperature in Karachi is recorded at 30.5°C, while the maximum temperature is likely to hover between 36 to 38°C, said the PMD. The Met Office reported that the humidity level in the air is 70%.
Karachi’s residents got some relief from the sweltering heat on Thursday after some parts of the city received much-needed rain. However, the brief spell of relief was short-lived as humidity quickly returned, dominating the atmosphere.
