The Pakistan Meteorological Department has forecast thundershowers for Karachi as well as some other districts in lower Sindh on Wednesday.
According to the forecast, the showers were to begin on Tuesday and last until today in Karachi, Badin, Tharparkar, Nangarparkar, Umerkot, Mirpurkhas, Mithi, Khairpur, Sanghar and Thatta. Meanwhile, weather in most parts of the province is expected to remain humid, as per the forecast.
Earlier this month, fourth spell of monsoon rains wreak havoc in the port city.
Flooded roads, power breakdowns, toppled trees, roads choked with traffic, damaged structures and authorities' negligence and hollow promises – nothing was out of the ordinary for the city's residents as heavy downpours lashed the metropolis.
Multiple roads, including Sharae Faisal - the city's main artery – had been flooded by rainwater, which disrupted traffic on thoroughfares in the apparent absence of pre-emptive measures.
Queues of vehicles stretching up to 10 kilometres were witnessed in many areas, leaving commuters frustrated while several vehicles ran out of fuel, adding to the predicament.
