The Meteorological Department has issued a second alert regarding the formation of a low pressure system over the central Arabian Sea.

Although the system has intensified since the last update, the department reassures that there is no immediate threat to Pakistan’s coastal regions.

According to the alert, the low pressure area is currently located about 900 kilometers south of Karachi. Meteorologists are closely monitoring the system as they believe it could develop into a depression in the next two days. However, as of now, there is no risk to the coastal areas of Pakistan.

In the event that the system turns into a cyclone, it would be named “Dana”, a term suggested by Qatar, which means “precious and beautiful pearl” in Arabic.

The Meteorological Department continues to monitor the situation and will provide further updates if the system develops into a more severe form.

A day ago, the Met office had predicted that Karachi was bracing for a mudstorm followed by light drizzle. The sudden change in weather is expected to bring gusty winds, reducing visibility and creating difficult conditions on the roads.

Although the drizzle will provide temporary relief from the heat, citizens are advised to take necessary precautions and limit outdoor activities during the storm.

Generally dry weather is expected in most parts of the country. However, cool weather is expected in hilly areas at night. Continental air prevails over most parts of the country.
