Hot and humid weather is predicted in coastal areas and light rain/drizzle may occur in the coastal belt. Mainly, hot and dry weather is likely to prevail in the province.
As per Met Office, northwest winds from Balochistan are influencing the city’s weather, while intense heat is expected to persist through Saturday and Sunday nights.
