Rain, strong winds expected along coast
The weather department forecasted intermittent light rain in the coastal areas of Sindh and Balochistan today.
The alert also warned of high waves and strong winds, with speeds ranging between 70 and 90 kilometers per hour, which may impact coastal settlements and fishing communities.
