The severe heat wave that was affecting lower and coastal Pakistan has moved towards central and upper Pakistan. Where it will cause temperatures to rise and after that it will enter India. The heat waves are common for the month of April but this year they have been weak and short-lived, possibly due to La-Nina and continous western disturbance system, which will cause harm to the upcoming monsoon season.
The Heat Wave is back!
Karachi was burning!
The same heat wave did cause the temperatures to soar to 41°C on April 22 in Karachi, the highest for the city uptill now. As expected the south west (sea breeze) winds have returned which are keeping the temperatures some what below than expected. Today (April 25) the temperature was at 35°C, while the winds were quite strong that helped the temperatures to remain below, winds were at 37 km/h. This heat wave has left Karachi and another strong heat wave will return in May.
While in Sindh province temperatures are still high as the city of Larkana braced itself for another extremely hot day with temperature touching 47°C on Monday (April 25). Temperatures will remain high in central and upper Sindh but in coastal Sindh the heat spell is broken

What are you saying? There is NO chance of rainfall over karachi like always
There is a slight chance…5%-10% chance of drizzle from Thursday till Friday
shoiab whats ur age?
but why are you asking?
5-10% would mean a probability of 0.05 to 0.1, and in case of weather, anything is possible!
The western winds will pass through Sindh including Karachi…so there is a chance it will cause rainfall but keeping past history in mind, for the month of April it normally does not rain in April in Karachi…
