monsoon… maybe next year

Now that the heat is back on and clouds don’t show up in the mornings anymore, it can be safely assumed that monsoons missed Karachi this year. Some people might take it as a good thing as the city can’t take too much rain, but still, it would have been nice to have a few showers (not drizzles). I have officially stopped hoping for rain from today. With September coming, the heat is going to be a killer. Let’s focus on keeping ourselves hydrated.

    I fully agree with you Umar - remembering the last year autumn’ heat wave, I would that this year it would really be a ‘killer’.

    Watch out guys and prepare yourself!

    I feel that not having any rain this year is almost a blessing . Looking at the condition of roads around Schon Circle, it would be a nightmare. It would probably push the completion of the underpass even more.

    I live in the hope of Winter Rains. Last winter’s showers were a lot of fun…lets hope this time round they make up for the monsoonlessness of this summer.
