KARACHI: The weather in the metropolis is expected to remain hot and dry throughout the day, according to the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD).

The minimum temperature recorded this morning was 21°C, while the maximum temperature is likely to range between 35°C and 37°C.

Humidity in the air was measured at 57%, with northeasterly winds blowing at a speed of around 3 km/h.

The sky will remain clear, and no rainfall is expected today. The Met Office further stated that there are no chances of rain in Karachi until next week.

On the other hand, Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has dismissed predictions suggesting that the country will experience an “extremely cold” winter this year.

According to the PMD, rainfall between December and February is expected to remain normal or slightly below normal in most parts of the country.

The department noted that occasional cold waves may occur in some regions due to the passage of westerly weather systems, but there is no scientific evidence supporting claims of an unusually harsh winter.

The PMD further clarified that no indications of record-breaking or exceptionally severe cold have been observed across Pakistan.
