Karachi Schools Close as Heavy Monsoon Rains Threaten Flooding

The Sindh government closed all schools, colleges, and educational institutions in Karachi due to heavy monsoon rains. The Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD) warned of severe weather, predicting flooding risks in low-lying areas.

The Commissioner Karachi issued a notification to shut all public and private educational institutions on Wednesday, September 10. This was shared with the Chief Secretary of Sindh, the Governor’s House, the Chief Minister’s House, and the education departments. Jinnah Sindh Medical University also postponed its September 9 exams and moved classes online to ensure safety.

The PMD advised residents to avoid travel, stay away from electrical hazards, and contact rescue services if needed. Local authorities are on high alert to manage drainage issues and prevent disruptions.

Weather Forecast for Karachi

Karachi saw light to moderate rain on September 9 in areas like Metroville, SITE, Baldia, Mauripur, Defence, Korangi Road, Shahrah-e-Faisal, Burns Road, and M.A. Jinnah Road. The PMD reported a high of 34°C, 91% humidity, and winds at 11 km/h. On September 10, heavy rain—possibly over 100 mm—is expected with thunder and lightning, driven by a monsoon system from Madhya Pradesh, India, now over southeastern Sindh.

Other Sindh districts, like Tharparkar, Umerkot, Mirpur Khas, and Hyderabad, are also affected. Nagarparkar recorded 80 mm of rain on Sunday, and Mithi saw 51 mm, showing the system’s strength.

Karachi’s weak drainage system raises concerns about waterlogging, especially in low-lying areas. The Malir River faced flash flooding on September 8, slowing traffic and threatening services. The PMD predicts the rain will ease after September 10, but residents should stay cautious. The school closures and flood warnings highlight Karachi’s struggle with monsoon seasons.
