Karachi, Pakistan – The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has forecast heavy rainfall in Karachi today, warning residents to brace for possible urban flooding and traffic disruptions.
According to the advisory, strong winds and thunderstorms are likely to accompany the downpour, particularly in low-lying areas of the city. Authorities have urged citizens to take precautionary measures and avoid unnecessary travel during peak showers.
Rescue teams and municipal bodies have been placed on high alert to manage potential emergencies, while Karachi’s administration has directed drainage staff to remain active to prevent waterlogging.
