It is pertinent to mention here that this is not the first time weather has surprised Karachiites in this winter season.
Just a couple of months ago hailstorm was witnessed in Karachi after four years. DHA, Clifton, I. I. Chundrigar Road, Shara-e-Faisal, and Malir saw the first winter rain along with hailstorm in the mid of December. Windy weather and downpours were also seen in Kharadar, Saddar, North Nazimabad and neighboring areas.
