The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has forecast light rain in Karachi tomorrow afternoon (Tuesday) as a deep depression currently lingers over Indian Gujarat, intensifying heat in the city.
Spokesperson for the department said temperatures in Karachi may touch 40 degrees Celsius today. Meteorologist Anjum Nazir noted that the depression may reach the Arabian Sea by October 1, carrying a 50% chance of further intensification before moving westwards towards Oman.
He clarified that the system is not likely to develop into a cyclone and is expected to dissipate into the deep sea after October 4. In the meantime, rain is expected at a few places, including Thatta, Sujawal, Tharparkar and Umerkot, while Karachi may experience post-monsoon showers after a long time.
