The meteorological department has issued a weather forecast for Karachi, anticipating drizzle or light rainfall accompanied by partly cloudy conditions in the next 24 hours. As Karachiites brace for a change in weather, the city’s minimum temperature dipped to 13.5 degrees Celsius, with a projected maximum temperature ranging between 25 to 27 degrees Celsius.
The humidity level in Karachi currently stands at 90 percent, and light-speed winds are blowing across the city, as reported by the weather department. However, amidst the anticipation of rainfall, Karachi has found itself ranked as the 5th most polluted city globally today, with a recorded particulate matter of 212 on the Air Quality Index (AQI).
Yesterday, the meteorological office hinted at the possibility of light rainfall in the city either later today or early tomorrow morning. The forecast suggests that Karachi might experience light to medium intensity rainfall due to the influence of a westerly system passing through Sindh’s coastal belt.
Weather experts have noted the likelihood of scattered showers and light rainfall in specific areas of Karachi during the mentioned period. Additionally, a new westerly wave is expected to enter Balochistan on February 2nd, introducing weather changes in the region.
Looking ahead to February, meteorologists anticipate another westerly system that will bring rainfall to central and upper parts of Sindh. Karachi residents are advised to stay informed about the evolving weather conditions and be prepared for potential precipitation in the coming days.
As the city experiences a shift in weather patterns, residents are encouraged to stay updated with official weather advisories and take necessary precautions. The prospect of rainfall offers a respite from dry conditions, and the Met Office continues to monitor and provide timely information to ensure the safety and well-being of the public.
