Sardar Sarfaraz, chief meteorologist at the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD), Monday said the city is likely to remain cloudy with drizzle and light rain to persist during the next 24 hours.

"The low pressure air which caused the rain has left Sindh. There will be chance of cloudy, drizzle and light rain in Karachi now," said Sarfaraz in conversation with Geo News.

The chief meteorologist added that another monsoon system may affect lower Sindh, including Karachi, from August 26 or 27.

In his forecast regarding upper Sindh, the weatherman said: "There is a possibility of rain in Upper Sindh on August 21."

Meanwhile, Karachi's minimum temperature today will be recorded at 28°C, while the maximum temperature is likely to be 30°C to 32°C, PMD said today.

According to the Met Office, the humidity ratio in the air is 81%, while wind is blowing from the southwest at a speed of 17 kilometres per hour.

Rejecting the claim of a record-breaking 300 milimetres rainfall in Sukkur, Sarfaraz said that it was, in fact, "wrong".

"116mm of rain was recorded in Sukkur in 48 hours. Rohri near Sukkur recorded 134 mm rainfall," he added.

A day earlier, Sindh's Sukkur city received devastating rains with claims of the city witnessing a 77-year record-breaking downpour were made.

In 2022, 374mm of rain had been recorded in 12 days, while in the current spell, Sukkur recorded 290mm of rainfall in just a single day, according to an official statement issued by the provincial authorities.
