KARACHI — Karachi is expected to remain mostly dry over the next 24 hours, but weather officials have warned that rain accompanied by thunder and lightning may return to the city’s outskirts on the first day of Eid ul Fitr as a westerly system moves across Pakistan.
The Met Office reported that the city will experience dry weather during the day, with maximum temperatures ranging between 29°C and 31°C and nighttime lows around 18°C. Humidity levels were recorded at 86%, while winds remained calm.
Following two days of rain, Karachi experienced relatively cool nights. Authorities have also forecast rainfall in other parts of Sindh on the first day of Eid, including Sukkur, Jacobabad, Larkana, Hyderabad, and along the coastal belt. Lightning strikes remain a potential risk during these showers.
The department added that skies are likely to remain cloudy in Karachi on the second and third days of Eid. Additionally, another westerly system may affect the region between March 24 and 27, bringing chances of rain to Karachi and other parts of Sindh.
Residents have been advised to stay alert, especially in low-lying and coastal areas, and to follow safety precautions during thunderstorms.
