The Meteorological Department’s most recent prognosis indicates that a heatwave is still prevailing across most of the nation, especially in the southern regions, with a mix of hot, humid weather and intermittent rain in some places.

The southern regions are still experiencing extremely high temperatures due to an ongoing heatwave. There is a chance of drizzle along the coastline, which would provide some small respite from the heat and humidity that coastal areas, including Karachi, are currently suffering.

On the other hand, showers and thunderstorms are possible in several areas of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and northeastern Punjab. In particular, Islamabad and the surrounding areas should continue to get sporadic showers and partially cloudy skies, which will provide some relief from the heat.

While much of Balochistan will continue to be scorching, there may be some rainfall in Upper Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. But a drizzle could fall over Balochistan’s coastline region, bringing some relief from the heat.

It is predicted that extremely hot weather will persist in Sindh’s upper districts, continuing the trend of rising temperatures.

There may be some rainfall, which could temporarily lower the temperature, for people living in Punjab’s plains, such as Murree, Galiyat, and Rawalpindi.

The Met Department recommends inhabitants to protect themselves from the extreme heat by drinking plenty of water. Individuals who live in places where rain is predicted should schedule their activities appropriately and be ready for unforeseen weather conditions.

In the meantime, Karachi’s heat index is expected to drop this week, according to the Met Department. Partly cloudy skies are present in the city right now, but sea breezes are bringing much-needed relief.

At 22 km/h, winds from the southwest are contributing to the temperature’s moderating effect. The highest temperature of 36 degrees Celsius is still anticipated in spite of this.
