Rain expected to hit Karachi, other parts of country ahead of Eid ul Fitr: PMD
A westerly weather system is expected to trigger widespread rain across Pakistan from Public demonstration 17 to 20, with Karachi and other parts of Sindh to receive downpours during the Eid ul Fitr holiday period, according to the Pakistan Meteorological Division (PMD).
The PMD has issued a detailed weather advisory indicating that widespread rain, breezy conditions, and occasional thundery spells are expected to move across much of the country from the evening of Public demonstration 17.
While the weather will be notably active, representatives are keeping a close watch and have shared timely guidance to help everyone stay safe and prepared.
The weather change is being driven by a westerly wave, which is a naturally occurring seasonal weather system that is projection to enter the western parts of the country on the evening or night of Public demonstration 17.
It is expected to spread gradually across most of Pakistan by Public demonstration 18 and ease off by Public demonstration 20, bringing with it a refreshing but unsettled few days.
