Karachi: The city continues to endure an intense spell of hot and dry weather, with temperatures soaring to 43\u00b0C, according to the Pakistan Meteorological Department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Officials reported that humidity levels have dropped to just 7 percent, significantly increasing the severity of the heat. Hot and dry winds are blowing from the northwest at a speed of around 19 kilometers per hour, further worsening the conditions across the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Met Office also noted that the minimum temperature recorded overnight was 29\u00b0C, offering little relief to residents even during nighttime hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Health experts have urged citizens to take precautionary measures during this extreme heat. They advised people to avoid unnecessary outdoor activities, especially during peak daytime hours, as prolonged exposure to high temperatures can lead to dehydration and heatstroke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Residents are encouraged to drink plenty of water, wear light and loose clothing, and cover their heads when going outside. Medical professionals emphasized that vulnerable groups, including children, the elderly, and those with existing health conditions, should be particularly careful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
