“Winds are blowing from the Northeast. The clouds are forming in the northern part of the city,” said Sarfraz. He added that the department had warned of strong winds a threat advisory for Cyclone Tauktae was issued.
The PMD official also said that the temperature in Karachi will decrease from tomorrow, adding that the clouds will leave the city in the next two to three hours.
