The mercury is likely to soar in Karachi over the next three days.

The MET Office on Saturday said that temperature would rise to 36 to 38 degrees Celsius between Sunday (March 25) and Tuesday.

However, Met Office Director Shahid Abbas said the temperature will most likely not cause much trouble for citizens due to low humidity.

He said the temperature will start decreasing from Wednesday due to sea breeze.
