KARACHI: Cyclone ‘Nanauk’ is moving fast towards the Omani coastal areas but the developing weather condition may lead to light to moderate rains in parts of Sindh and Balochistan within the next couple of days, said a Met official on Wednesday.
“The cyclone poses no threat to Pakistan and its coastal belts,” said chief meteorologist Tauseef Alam. “It’s likely to hit Oman’s coastal belt on June 14 or 15, but it will definitely affect weather in Pakistan’s coastal areas, a few cities and towns in Balochistan and Sindh.”
He said the developing weather in the Arabian Sea would keep the coastal cities of Sindh and Balochistan cloudy and there could be light to moderate rains in the next two to three days in Gawadar, Karachi and other areas along the sea.
“The Balochistan portion of the Arabian Sea is also expected to stay moderate to rough within the next couple of days, but in Sindh it would be normal,” he added.
