Karachi weather forecast: Partly cloudy and humid, light rain possible

Karachi is likely to experience light drizzle within the next 24 hours, with partly cloudy skies and humidity expected to persist. The city recorded a minimum temperature of 27°C, according to the Pakistan Meteorological Department

The maximum temperature in the city is forecasted to range between 30°C and 32°C. Winds are blowing from the southwest at a speed of 11 km/h, with humidity levels reaching 85%.

Residents are advised to prepare for slightly damp conditions as the drizzle could contribute to higher moisture levels throughout the day.

Heavy rainfall has left Karachi’s streets dire in the past two weeks, with key roads caving in and neighborhood streets becoming nearly impassable. The damage has severely disrupted traffic and created dangerous conditions for residents.

In Shah Faisal Colony, large potholes from Fauji Foundation Hospital to Number Three have slowed traffic, while local shopkeepers struggle with dust and debris.

The situation is equally bad from Number Three to Number One, with the road to Malir River Bridge becoming uneven.

Major streets such as Pathrowala Road and Asif Road have also been damaged, and in Clifton Block-2, a road collapse has disconnected parts of the city.

Similar conditions are seen on Jehangir Road near Teen Hatti, where a newly-built road has been destroyed by rain.

Korangi's link road to Landhi is nearly unusable due to potholes and overflowing sewers, causing road accidents. Meanwhile, a 24-inch sewage line beneath Tariq Road collapsed, adding to the chaos.

University Road, already affected by BRT Red Line construction, has become a bottleneck for motorists, with severe traffic jams near Safari Park caused by standing rainwater and sewage.
