The department also noted that rainfall this year is expected to be below normal, which may contribute to an unusual rise in temperature.
While Karachi is expected to remain dry, residents are advised to take precautions during peak daytime hours, especially in southern parts of the city and surrounding areas where the heat will be most severe.

The combination of low rainfall and soaring temperatures may make outdoor activities more challenging during the final ten days of Ramadan.
