Pakistan was largely spared the full force of Cyclone Biparjoy which weakened into a severe cyclonic storm on Friday after making landfall in Gujarat, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake in the Indian state. People in Sindh’s coastal city of Keti, who braved the cyclone threat and a warning of monsoon rains, are now returning to their homes after the Pakistan Meteorological Department said the cyclone has weakened into a “severe cyclonic storm” from a “very severe cyclonic storm”. “The Very Severe Cyclonic Storm ‘BIPARJOY’ over the northeast Arabian Sea after crossing the Indian Gujarat coast has weakened into a Severe Cyclonic Storm,” the Met Office said in its latest advisory,” it said. Sindh’s coastal areas, like Sujawal, were inundated by high sea levels but most people had been evacuated to safe ground,” Climate Change Minister Sherry Rehman tweeted.
