The Meteorological Department has issued an alert that air pressure is low in the eastern Arabian Sea and a depression is forming 340 km east and southeast of Karachi which can intensify in the next 24 hours, forming a tropical storm.
The Meteorological Department has further said that the storm will move northwest. It is likely to rain in Karachi, Hyderabad, Thatta, and Badin this afternoon or evening till October 2, since, according to Director Meteorology Department Sardar Sarfraz, the low air pressure is fast decreasing.
Sardar Sarfraz also said that low wind pressure could take on the form of a cyclonic storm. Rain is also likely across Sindh and, urban flooding in cities is also a risk.
It is to be noted that Karachi continued to experience hot winds last night due to the impending cyclone in the Arabian Sea.
