Even though it’s already extremely hot in several areas of the nation, meteorologist Owais Hyder said on Sunday that Karachi may see the “hottest week of the year” the following week.
The meteorologist stated, “There’s a chance that the megalopolis will see more intense heat next week.”
He stated that from Tuesday through Thursday, the temperature may range from 40 to 42 degrees Celsius.
It has been recommended that individuals stay inside during extremely hot weather and stay hydrated by drinking enough beverages to prevent heatstroke.
Severe heat waves in cities are frequently accompanied by power outages, with some regions suffering load shedding for as long as fifteen hours every day.
Extreme weather occurrences are becoming more common in Pakistan, and scientists have connected this to climate change.
The city has been experiencing a heat wave for the past two weeks, and it is predicted to last until the first week of June.
A heatwave alert has been issued for the general public by the National Disaster Management Authority and other provincial agencies, requesting that people take the appropriate action right away.
According to the caution, heatstroke is most likely to occur in young children, the elderly, athletes, and outdoor laborers.
