The wind direction has changed in the port city and the winds are now blowing from the north-west direction, the analyst added.

Last week, weather analysts predicted Karachi to witness warmer days with temperatures to go up to 26°C to 28°C during the day and dropping to a minimum of 11°C to 13°C.
The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) had also predicted the weather to remain cold and dry with the minimum temperature in the metropolis expected to remain from 9°C to 11°C on January 26.
