Traveller notes on Karachi in July
Other months in Karachi
January is Karachi's coolest month and the forum treats that as the whole appeal: 10 to 20°C, mostly sunny days, cold after dusk but nowhere near freezing — moderate next to a northern Pakistan that is genuinely frozen in midwinter. The record puts it at about 23°C by day and 13 overnight, with almost no rain at all. Regulars advise long, loose shirts and trousers rather than shorts; western clothes are fine so long as they are not revealing. Late winter into early spring is their wider recommendation for beating the heat here.
