ISLAMABAD, JULY 18: According to the Pakistan Meteorological Department, Karachi saw the hottest night of July for the second time this month on Tuesday night (PMD).
At least 32 degrees Celsius were attained, which matched the record established on July 1 for the hottest evening temperature ever recorded in July in the city.The average July temperature in Karachi is 27.9 degrees Celsius, therefore the recent evenings have been 4.1 degrees warmer than normal.
