Overall weather conditions expected to remain hot and humid during next two days, says Met Office
\n KARACHI
\nKarachi swelters in extremely hot weather following little rain in the past few days but the meteorological department has predicted the heat spell to subside from tonight.
\nThe port city has been gripped by a severe heatwave for the past few days with temperatures rising over 40\u00b0C and feels like temperatures surging past 50\u00b0C.
\nAdditionally, prolonged loadshedding is making life miserable for the masses.
\nPakistan Meteorological Department\u2019s latest weather advisory for the metropolis stated that the intensity of hot weather is likely to diminish from this evening as the low-pressure system that caused the sea winds suspension moves away from the port city.
\n\u201cThe persisting very hot and humid weather conditions [are] likely to ease from today evening as the low-pressure area has moved away from Karachi,\u201d the Met Office said.
\nMoreover, sea breeze will be restored under the effect of a distant low-pressure system.
\nThe overall weather conditions are expected to remain hot and humid during the next two days.
\nHowever, light showers or drizzle is expected to grace the Karachiites this evening who eagerly wait for rain amid searing heat.
\nThe restoration of winds and likely drizzle tonight is expected to lower down the temperature, with the mercury predicted to hover between 35-37 degrees Celsius.
\nAs per the Met Office, the highest temperature was recorded at 38\u00b0C.
\nMeanwhile, parts of Sindh including Jamshoro, Badin, Thatta, Umerkot and Tharparker districts are likely to receive isolated thunderstorms and rain this evening.
\nEarlier, Chief Meteorologist Sardar Sarfaraz had ruled out any chances of rain in Karachi.
\nDwellers of the mega-city got some relief from the sweltering heat on Thursday after some areas received much-needed rain.
\nEven though the brief spell was a breath of fresh air, the coolness in the atmosphere was short-lived with humidity taking over.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
