The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has predicted hot and humid weather in Karachi today, with a chance of rain in the outskirts of the city.
The Met Office said the city’s temperature could reach 38°C, but high humidity will make it feel more like above 40°C.
The humidity is at 70%, while winds are blowing from the west at 7 kilometers per hour, the department further added.
Earlier, following an intense spell of high temperatures, Karachi might finally get a break as the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has signaled the likelihood of showers, thunderstorms, and strong winds hitting parts of the city by Monday.
According to the latest weather update, the city is expected to remain humid with intermittent cloud cover. Daytime highs are projected to stay between 36 and 38 degrees Celsius, while nighttime lows recently dipped to around 30°C.
Humidity remains a concern, currently marked at 73%, with northwesterly breezes blowing mildly at roughly 3 kilometers per hour.
The anticipated shift in weather is linked to an active pre-monsoon pattern that began moving through eastern Sindh late Saturday.
The meteorological department had earlier alerted residents about this change, warning that certain regions—including Karachi—may experience unstable weather.
Concurrently, another weather disturbance, this time originating from the west, is impacting the northern and central parts of Pakistan.
This westerly system is expected to linger through Sunday and Monday, potentially causing scattered rainfall, dust storms, and isolated thunder in areas like northeast and south Punjab, parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Balochistan’s northeast, southeast Sindh, Azad Jammu and Kashmir, and Gilgit-Baltistan.
