The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) has predicted rains and thundershowers in several parts of the metropolitan on Friday and Saturday.
PMD Director Sardar Sarfaraz said moderate to heavy rain is expected in the next two days. He also warned of urban flooding in low-lying areas of the metropolitan on Friday saying that the monsoon system has strengthened due to the moisture from the Arabian Sea.
Videos and pictures circulating on social media show motorists and pedestrians facing a hard time walking on the roads.
