The port city experienced a renewed cold wave on Sunday as fresh gusts of icy winds from Siberia reached the shores of the Arabian Sea to end their thousands of miles long journey.
According to the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD), the minimum temperature recorded on Sunday was 9.8°C, with visibility reduced to 3 kilometres due to light fog in the morning.
The PMD forecasts cold and dry conditions for the next 24 hours, with daytime temperatures expected to peak at 28°C and nighttime temperatures dropping to as low as 9°C.
Winds are predicted to blow at speeds ranging from 5 to 20 kilometres per hour from varying directions, contributing to the intensified chill.
The cold spell comes as residents of Karachi brace for extended chilly nights and cooler days.
The drop in temperature follows a series of fluctuating weather patterns in the city, making this one of the coldest periods of the season so far.
Authorities have advised citizens to take precautions against the cold, particularly during early mornings and evenings.
