The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) announced on Saturday that most parts of Sindh, including Karachi, will continue to experience a heatwave until May 20 due to persistent high atmospheric pressure over the region.
According to the Met Office, several districts across Sindh are expected to record temperatures significantly above the normal. In Dadu, Shaheed Benazirabad, and Naushahro Feroze, temperatures are likely to remain 5 to 7°C higher than the average.
Similar deviations are anticipated in Jacobabad, Sukkur, and adjacent areas, where the temperature may also stay 5 to 7°C above the seasonal norms.
Meanwhile, temperatures in Badin, Tharparkar, Umerkot, and Hyderabad are forecast to remain 3 to 5°C above normal levels during this period.
In Karachi, hot and humid weather conditions will prevail over the next three days, with daytime temperatures likely fluctuating between 35 and 37°C.
The Met Office has cautioned that the elevated humidity levels will cause the perceived temperature to be higher than the actual recorded values.
