Winter in Karachi is expected to begin in mid-December, while the metropolis will continue to experience hot and dry weather in the coming weeks, according to the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD). The Met Office stated that temperatures in Karachi could remain between 36℃ and 38℃ until the end of October, with daytime temperatures likely to reach 37℃ until November 6.

After November 6, daytime temperatures are expected to decline to around 35℃. The department noted that while nights in Karachi will remain cool during November, daytime weather is likely to stay clear and sunny.

The forecast suggests that Karachi will continue to experience hot weather over the next several weeks, with daytime temperatures gradually declining as November progresses. Earlier, the PMD had forecast above-normal temperatures for November, with daytime readings ranging between 33℃ and 35℃, and night-time temperatures between 19℃ and 22℃.

For context, the normal daytime average for Karachi in November is 32.6℃, while the usual night-time average is 17.7℃. The current forecast suggests that both daytime and night-time temperatures may remain above these monthly averages.

Meteorologists have attributed this trend to changing climate patterns and the delayed arrival of seasonal winds. Residents are advised to stay hydrated and take necessary precautions during the peak heat hours of the day.

The PMD continues to monitor the situation closely and will issue updates if there are significant shifts in the weather patterns. As the city transitions toward the winter season, the humidity levels are also expected to fluctuate.

While the coastal breeze usually provides some relief, the current dry spell is expected to persist until the onset of the winter cycle. Citizens are encouraged to keep track of official weather bulletins for accurate planning.

The agricultural sector in the surrounding areas of Karachi is also keeping a close eye on these temperature trends, as the delay in winter onset can impact the sowing cycles of certain seasonal crops. The PMD remains the primary source for all weather-related data in the country.
