According to the meteorological service, Karachi’s heat is predicted to lessen starting on Sunday, May 14.
On Saturday morning, the lowest temperature was 28 °C with 68% humidity. According to the MET office, the highest temperature might reach 36–38 °C. Western winds are blowing at a 15 kilometer per hour speed.
Since May 10, Karachi and neighboring areas of Sindh have been subject to a heat wave.
On May 8 and 9, the Met Office projected sweltering heat in central and upper Sindh, and from May 10 to 13, it expected a rise in temperatures in Pakistan’s southern regions.
According to Sindh’s chief meteorologist, Dr. Sardar Sarfraz, temperatures have reached as high as 45 °C in certain places, and the heatwave has spread to all other cities and villages in the province.
Given that Jacobabad is one of the hottest cities in the world and the hottest city in Asia, the heatwave is seen as a serious threat to Pakistan.
