Karachi: Residents of Karachi can expect hot and humid weather on Saturday, with partly cloudy skies and occasional strong winds providing some relief from the heat.
According to Beyond Time News, the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has forecast temperatures ranging between 34°C and 36°C during the day. While humidity levels will remain high, sea breezes are expected to continue blowing across the city over the next 24 hours.
Weather officials say the return of sea winds has helped improve conditions after several days of intense heat in the coastal metropolis.
Strong Sea Breezes Expected Across Karachi
The Meteorological Department reported that sea breezes are likely to remain active throughout the day and night.
Wind speeds are expected to range between 25 and 45 kilometres per hour, which may provide temporary relief from the humid conditions.
Furthermore, partly cloudy skies could help reduce direct sunlight during certain periods of the day. However, temperatures are still expected to remain above seasonal comfort levels.
According to Beyond Time News, weather experts advise residents to stay hydrated and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during peak afternoon hours.
Humidity Levels Remain High
Humidity continues to be a major factor affecting weather conditions in Karachi.
The Meteorological Department recorded morning humidity at 66 percent. Meanwhile, humidity levels are expected to fluctuate between 55 percent and 75 percent during the next 24 hours.
As a result, residents may experience temperatures that feel warmer than the actual readings. High humidity often increases discomfort, especially during daytime hours.
Therefore, health experts recommend drinking plenty of water and limiting outdoor activities during the hottest parts of the day.
Hot and Dry Weather to Persist Across Pakistan
While Karachi experiences humid coastal weather, most parts of Pakistan are likely to remain hot and dry.
According to Beyond Time News, weather authorities expect dry conditions to dominate across large areas of the country during the coming days.
However, some northern and mountainous regions may receive isolated rainfall.
Meteorologists have forecast rain accompanied by wind and thunderstorms in parts of Gilgit-Baltistan, upper Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Kashmir, and nearby hilly areas.
These weather systems could provide temporary relief from rising temperatures in those regions.
