KARACHI: According to meteorologists, “a medium-level pressure over the Arabian Sea” is expected to be established on June 30 and will bring the monsoon season to Karachi in early July.
A medium-level pressure system is predicted to form over the Arabian Sea on June 30, according to a meteorological analyst who spoke with News. This would bring the port city its first period of precipitation during the first week of July.
The monsoon season in Pakistan is expected to start on June 27 and last until July 4. However, scientists predict “more than usual rains” in Karachi and the southern regions of Sindh this year.
But the expert described it as a “long-term forecast” that might alter in the future.
The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) had earlier said in its daily forecast that the majority of the country’s plain areas would see extremely hot and dry weather during the day.
On the other hand, during the evening hours, strong gusts, windstorms, and sporadic rain-thunderstorms are predicted for the upper Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Gilgit-Baltistan, northeast Punjab, Islamabad, Potohar region, and Kashmir.
It also said that there will be drizzle in certain parts of Karachi late on Wednesday night, but the port city’s weather would likely stay hot and muggy for the next day.
