Are you ready for storms,this afternoon?

As told in last update,thundershowers could develop in lower Sindh (Hyderabad and Karachi divisions).So,chances are at peak right now. But rain intensity might be of varying intensity with amounts ranging between 10-20mm. Warning:-Any storm developing would be capable of causing periods of few heavy spells and as drainage system is worse in Hyderabad and Karachi, it might be flooding.So be careful.

Thundershowers will start developing in Hyderabad tomorrow during afternoon hours

As we all know about the intense monsoonal system (well marked low pressure) which is likely to affect south sindh from tomorrow and remains till Friday either till Saturday. Strong monsoonal currents with increased convection is expected to produce a thunderstorm in Hyderabad and Karachi both tomorrow esp during afternoon hours. Rain intensity may vary depending upon intensity of thunderstorms. Our estimates suggest about 10-20mm in Hyderabad and Karachi tomorrow. However,system will be at peak on Thursday,very heavy rains with severe thunderstorms & windstorms expected in both cities.Rainfall amounts would exceed 50mm on that day,might be more than our imagination. While,the total rain amounts may exceed even 100mm or 150mm.In that case,there will be very high potential for urban flooding. Stay safe and take care of your animals.Don't take them outside during storm.

STORMY EID DAYS:MONSOON TO COME IN ACTIVE PHASE DURING WEDNESDAY TO POSSIBLY SATURDAY

Most of our analysis including upper and mid levels suggest very stormy weather patterns in Sindh due to a rain maker system (low pressure) at central India.It might hit coastal parts of Sindh on Thursday. Strong monsoon currents expected to penetrate at about 1500m above mean sea level during the period which could extend far 12km above msl causing formations of intense thunderstorms. More on it,a low level instability will trigger the system. Probably,it could be last considerable spell of monsoon for sindh but could be memorable. Fairly widespread Thunderstorms activity associated with heavy rains expected at a number of places of Sindh from Wednesday to Saturday. SIGNIFICANT WEATHER ADVISORY: FOR SOME PARTS INCLUDING KARACHI, THERE IS A RISK OF THUNDERSTORM PEAKS MIGHT REACH 12,000-14,000m above msl ,which could produce very severe winds & thunder/lightning accompanied by moderate to heavy falls. MOST PARTS INCLUDING THATTA , BADIN ,HYDERABAD ARE UNDER RISK OF FLASH FLOOD
