It was just a few days ago that Karachi was turned from a bustling metropolis to a water-logged island of sorts with its residents, most of them office and factory workers, stranded in different parts of the city and some even spending the night at the residence of an office colleague or near relative as it was impossible to reach their own residence through the streets that had turned into small lakes.

According to the metrological office, this could happen again and actually as early as this week and according to some estimates this time around it might be even more severe so everyone has to be prepared for the worst.**

By the time you read this the worst would have been over or so I hope as this is not estimated to last for more than a few days and as the weather in Karachi goes it might not happen altogether with the concerned depression floating away to cause havoc elsewhere. This, however, is not any phenomenon that is going away forever. If anything given the present climatic changes........
