However, there is also a possibility of <strong>light drizzle<\/strong> in isolated areas of the city, which may provide brief relief from the heat but is unlikely to significantly lower temperatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Southwesterly winds are currently blowing at a speed of <strong>19 kilometers per hour<\/strong>, helping maintain airflow across the city. Despite the breeze, humidity remains high at <strong>74%<\/strong>, contributing to increased discomfort and making outdoor conditions feel warmer than the actual air temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Health experts generally advise people to stay hydrated, avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during peak afternoon hours, wear light-colored clothing, and take extra precautions for children, older adults, and those with existing health conditions during periods of high heat and humidity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Residents are encouraged to monitor updated weather advisories, as changing atmospheric conditions could affect the likelihood of drizzle or further fluctuations in temperature throughout the day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Karachi: The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has forecast a rise in temperatures across Karachi today, with residents expected to experience hotter and more humid weather&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4969,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4968","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pakistan"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/437423_4625370_updates-1.jpg",700,400,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/437423_4625370_updates-1-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/437423_4625370_updates-1-300x171.jpg",300,171,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/437423_4625370_updates-1.jpg",700,400,false],"large":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/437423_4625370_updates-1.jpg",700,400,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/437423_4625370_updates-1.jpg",700,400,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/paksouch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/437423_4625370_updates-1.jpg",700,400,false]},"author_info":{"info":["admin"]},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/?cat=3\" rel=\"category\">Pakistan<\/a>","tag_info":"Pakistan","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4968","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4968"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4968\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4970,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4968\/revisions\/4970"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/4969"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4968"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4968"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/paksouch.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4968"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
