Karachi, Pakistan – The bustling metropolis of Karachi is set to experience continued hot and humid weather in the coming days, according to the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD).
Despite occasional hopes for rain, the PMD has confirmed that there is no immediate chance of precipitation in the port city. Karachi residents will have to endure the persistent dry spell for a while longer.
Temperature Trends
On Tuesday, the mercury climbed to 30°C at noon, offering a taste of the scorching conditions. However, relief is anticipated in the evening as the temperature is expected to drop to a slightly more bearable 28°C. Despite this drop, humidity remains a significant factor, with levels recorded at around 68 percent.
Moderate Air Quality
Karachi’s air quality on Tuesday was rated at 49, indicating fair conditions. This suggests that the air quality is generally acceptable for the majority of individuals. However, sensitive groups may still experience minor to moderate symptoms if exposed to these conditions over an extended period.
Across Pakistan, continental air masses maintain their dominance over the weather patterns. Additionally, a shallow westerly wave is present in the upper parts of the country, adding complexity to the weather scenario. While most plain areas can expect hot and humid weather, there is a glimmer of hope for those seeking relief from the heat. Rain, wind, and thunderstorms are expected at isolated locations in upper Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, the Potohar region, Islamabad, Kashmir, and Gilgit-Baltistan during the evening and night hours.
As Karachiites adapt to the ongoing hot and humid conditions, it’s crucial to stay informed about any sudden weather changes. Be prepared, stay hydrated, and take necessary precautions to stay comfortable amidst the prevailing weather challenges.
