With a temperature of 40 degrees Celsius recorded in Mithi (Tharparkar) on Thursday, the anticipated heatwave in Sindh has already started.
This is the region’s warmest February temperature in 80 years, according to weather sources.
According to predictions from earlier this week, the area is predicted to break comparable weather records in the coming days.
The temperature in Sindh is anticipated to range between 36 and 38 degrees Celsius over the upcoming several days, according to the prediction.
According to Chief Meteorologist Sardar Sarfaraz, temperatures would climb in the province’s Tharparkar, Mirpur Khas, Umarkot, Badin, and Thatta districts.
While temperatures in Karachi are likely to reach a top of 33 degrees Celsius on February 17 and 18, temperatures are not anticipated to increase as swiftly in other parts of Sindh.
Due to an Anticyclonic Circulation reaching the coast, the cooling effects of the sea wind are expected to be momentarily delayed, so this warm spell is likely to last until February 21.
