  "summary": "Sindh has recorded Pakistan's lowest rainfall this monsoon season, with the province receiving 50.8 percent less rainfall than normal, according to data released by the Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD). Karachi experienced an exceptional 92 percent rainfall deficit from July to September, while the country as a whole received only 120.5 millimeters of rainfall between July 1 and September 30, which was 19.3 percent below the normal level for the period. The below-normal monsoon rainfall, largely influenced by the formation and effects of El Nino, has raised concerns about water availability, agriculture, and weather patterns across the country, particularly in Sindh, where the shortfall was most severe.",
