GEO 436 KARACHI: The storm brewing up near Pakistan coastline is not feared to bear down in the next 12 to 24 hours; however, it is likely to force entry into Sindh coastal areas at night between Friday and Saturday, Geo News quoted Chief Meteorologist Arif Mehmood say Wednesday. Talking to Geo News, he said only the coastal areas would be affected, adding these areas including Thatta, Badin, Hyderabad, Mirpur Khas, Thar Parkar would receive showers; but, Karachi would be lashed by the driving rains. Arif further said that storm-generated sea waves might be 4 to 6-foot high, urging the fishermen to stay back. Responding a query, the meteorologist said the ocean-borne cyclones are lined with the monsoon season. He added that the recent cyclone was engendered as a result of hot weather at Arabian Sea, as the temperature crossed 30-Centigrade barrier. Arif forecasted Karachi would be overcast tomorrow and have tempestuous downpours.
