Cool Season In Pakistan

Cool Season (November to February), temperatures during this period remain low, as the rays of the sun are slanting. The air pressure is high because the cold air is heavy and it settles down over the cold lands. Low pressure in this season is located on the Arabian Sea area as the water is comparatively warmer than the adjoining lands.

Winds: In this season the winds blow from cold regions of the north where high pressure is located to the warm Arabia Sea. The direction of winds is from North East to South West as shown on the map. As a rule this season is dry because the winds mostly are blowing from cold dry lands to warm areas of the Arabian Sea and the condition is not conducive to rainfall.

However, occasionally this dry spell is obstructed by currents of westerly winds also carry depressions i.e. low pressure areas originate in the Atlantic Ocean and are driven along the prevailing westerly winds en route to Mediterranean and Persian Gulf and thus change the cool, sunny, calm.
