Karachi residents should brace for warm and muggy conditions throughout the weekend as high humidity levels continue to amplify the heat index across the coastal metropolis, the Pakistan Meteorological Department announced in its latest synoptic bulletin.
Daytime maximum temperatures are anticipated to remain between 35°C and 37°C in central and northern parts of the city including Malir, Gulshan-e-Maymar, and Surjani, while coastal zones may record slightly lower readings with afternoon humidity touching 72 percent.
The Met Office noted that sea breezes from the Arabian Sea might experience intermittent interruptions due to a seasonal low-pressure trough over southern Sindh, though complete heatwave conditions are not anticipated.
Health authorities have advised citizens to stay adequately hydrated, avoid unnecessary outdoor exertion between 11:00 AM and 3:30 PM, and ensure vulnerable individuals have access to well-ventilated spaces.
