Karachi weather tomorrow: drizzle possible Friday night, PMD says

Karachi could get light rain or drizzle on Friday, 13 November, but only in the evening and at night, the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) said in its daily forecast issued on Thursday. The day itself stays warm, with a high of about 33°C and humid air.

What the PMD says for Karachi

• Sky: partly cloudy, turning cloudier later in the day.
• Rain: a chance of light rain or drizzle in the evening and night.
• Temperature: a low of about 21 to 23°C and a high near 33°C.
• Humidity: around 83% in the morning.

The Express Tribune, quoting the PMD, also said light rain or drizzle was likely in Karachi on Friday, with highs between 32 and 34°C. The rest of Sindh is expected to stay mostly dry.

Fog and cool nights

Karachi has had misty mornings this week. The Express Tribune reported that visibility fell to 2.5 km in fog on 9 November, and the PMD had warned of light fog on Thursday morning. Minute Mirror described the pattern as cool nights and misty mornings, with warm afternoons. The PMD has not issued a specific fog warning for Friday morning, so a hazy start is possible but not forecast.

If you drive early, keep your low beams on near the coast and on the Northern Bypass, where fog tends to sit longest.

Rest of Pakistan

The wider picture is the same western weather system we reported on earlier in the week: rain and thunderstorms in parts of the north, and snow on the higher peaks, while the plains of Punjab deal with smog and morning fog on the motorways. The PMD publishes a highway fog update each morning, worth checking before a long drive.

Will it rain properly in Karachi?

Not according to the current forecast. The PMD talks about drizzle, not a proper downpour, and for a short window. Watch the PMD’s update on Friday morning: if the clouds thicken over the sea during the day, the evening drizzle is more likely to arrive.
