Karachi and other parts of Sindh experienced varying levels of rainfall on Thursday, and more rainy weather is anticipated in the coming days, according to experts.

The overcast conditions, accompanied by strong winds and showers, have brought about a pleasant change in the weather by reducing temperatures across the province.

Within the last 24 hours, upper/southeast Sindh witnessed rain-wind/thundershowers.

Rainfall recorded in Sindh: Chhor 36, Sukkur 13, Dadu and Mithi 07 each, Khairpur and Mohenjo Daro 03 each, Larkana and Rohri 02 each.

The synoptic situation indicates that monsoon currents from the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal are affecting most parts of the country, while a westerly wave is impacting the upper regions.

Due to these weather conditions, rain-wind/thundershowers are expected in several areas, including Tharparkar, Umarkot, Sanghar, Mirpur Khas, Mithi, Padidan, Sukkur, Larkana, Shaheed Benazirabad, Chhor, Dadu, Jamshoro, Jacobabad, Khairpur, Thatta, Badin, and Karachi on Thursday night.
