Met official: The monsoon system will bring 150–200 mm of rain to Karachi.

Chief Meteorologist Sardar Sarfaraz stated on Tuesday that Sindh was experiencing severe rainfall due to a system of strong monsoon winds.

“In Thatta and Badin districts, this system is expected to dump 300 to 400mm of rainfall,” a meteorologist stated. 150 to 200 mm of rain is expected in Karachi, according to a weather authority.

He predicted that when the weather system moves closer to the area, the amount of rain will increase.

In addition, he said that from August 28 to 30, with pauses, Karachi and neighboring Sindhi districts may expect severe rainfall.

With regard to the city’s urban floods, he stated, “The downpour will begin from afternoon and will continue until August 30.”

At a rain emergency session in Karachi on Monday, the chief minister of Sindh was briefed about the heavy rainfall caused by the weather system that was entering the province.

Sardar Sarfaraz, the Chief Meteorologist, informed the group that Karachi will see persistently high rainfall from August 27 to August 31 due to a meteorological system.

The first week of September is when another monsoon system is predicted, he added.

Karachi will receive 150–200 millimeters of rain during this fresh rain spell, according to meteorologists. In Thatta, Sujawal, Mirpur Khas, Sanghar, and Nawab Shah, 250 to 300 mm of rain are predicted.

Badin, Tando Muhammad Khan, Thar Parkar, and Umarkot districts could receive up to 500mm of rainfall due to the weather system. Also, according to a forecast official, the remaining districts of Sindh can receive 70–100 mm of rain.

“Very heavy rainfall” was forecast on August 28 by DG Provincial Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) Salman Shah. A disaster management official warned that floods might occur in Dadu, Qambar Shahdadkot, Jacobabad, and Jamshoro.

To address the matter, Chief Minister Shah gave orders to all divisional commissioners.

The local administrations of Sindh were directed by him to maintain vigilance, keep an eye on their drains and nulllahs, and set up equipment for water drainage.

“Machineries for cleaning nullahs and drains have been provided to all towns,” said Saeed Ghani, a minister of local government.

The drainage system for nullahs is now better, according to Karachi Mayor Murtaza Wahab of the water board.
