      <title>Karachi: Cold weather returns as winds shift</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330405840/karachi-cold-weather-returns-as-winds-shift</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Karachi is experiencing a return of cold weather due to a change in wind direction, with dry northeastern winds blowing since last night, according to the Meteorological Department.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The city is currently partly cloudy, with cold and dry conditions prevailing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The maximum temperature is expected to reach around 31 degrees Celsius, while the minimum temperature is forecasted to stay between 17 and 19 degrees Celsius.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Winds are blowing at a speed of 7 km per hour from the northeast, with humidity levels at 22 percent.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The air quality in the city remains poor, with Karachi ranked eleventh among the most polluted cities in the world, according to the Air Quality Index (AQI).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The concentration of particulate matter in the air has been recorded at 152 micrograms per cubic meter.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The cold snap in Karachi has resulted in temperatures being recorded 6.3 degrees below normal.&lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;/figure&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Last night, the minimum temperature dropped to 13.1 degrees Celsius, significantly lower than the average March temperature of 19.4 degrees Celsius.&lt;/p&gt;
