🇦🇪 Dubai vs 🇵🇰 Karachi

Hot desert — extremely hot summers, warm winters, minimal rainfall

Dubai has one of the most extreme climates of any major city. Summers (June–September) are dangerously hot with temperatures regularly exceeding 110°F and high humidity near the coast. Winter (November–March) is the reason millions visit — clear skies, warm days, and cool evenings.

Karachi's climate is dominated by its position on the Arabian Sea coast along the southern edge of the Sindh plain, creating a hot semi-arid environment moderated by maritime influence. The city experiences extreme heat from April to June before the southwest monsoon brings humid relief, while sea breezes penetrate unevenly across the sprawling metropolitan area depending on distance from the coast and building density. The Lyari and Malir river corridors, mangrove-fringed coastline, and stark contrasts between dense old-city fabric and open peripheral development create significant microclimate variation across the megacity.
