Tharparkar received 15 mm, Rohri 14 mm, Sukkur 13 mm, while Larkana and Hyderabad recorded 11 mm each.

The Met Office said Karachi will continue to experience intermittent rain over the next 24 hours as a monsoon system, currently present in the form of a depression about 60 km west of the city, slowly weakens into a low-pressure area.

Heavy showers are likely in the western and southern parts of the metropolis by Tuesday afternoon, while light to moderate rainfall is expected to persist until late at night.

The system will also affect Jamshoro, Thatta, and Sujawal, though most other Sindh districts will remain hot and humid.

Karachi’s minimum temperature was recorded at 25°C, while the maximum is expected to range between 27°C and 29°C. Humidity stood at 92 per cent, with southeasterly winds blowing at 15 km/h.
