Weather experts are predicting that Southern Sindh, including Karachi, will experience heavier than usual monsoon rains starting early July. This forecast comes as a result of a medium-level pressure system expected to develop over the Arabian Sea by June 30, which is likely to initiate the first spell of rain.
The monsoon season across Pakistan is set to commence between June 27 and July 4, according to meteorological reports. However, experts caution that this long-term forecast is subject to change.
Meanwhile, the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has forecasted very hot and dry weather conditions for most plains, with possibilities of evening rainstorms in northeast Punjab and surrounding areas.
In contrast, neighboring India is bracing for below-normal rainfall in June, a development that could potentially impact its agriculture sector due to the sluggish progress of the monsoon.
Stay tuned for further updates as the monsoon season unfolds and weather patterns evolve.
