Due to the heavy rain that has been falling in Bahria town, Karachi, for the past two hours, there is currently urban flooding there. Due to a net failure, they are unable to connect to their weather station there, but it is anticipated that more than 100mm of rain had fallen there in a very short period of time.
However, according to reports, Bahria Town is now entirely free of floods. After 100mm or more of rain, the scenario may have turned into urban flooding or water lodging, but the amazing town structure is on display here.

Bahria Town is situated on a natural slope (hilly area) that is vulnerable to short-term flash floodings, but because it is a natural passageway, flood water does not accumulate there and does not result in urban flooding, even if today’s rain event was intense.
Bahria Town Karachi (BTK) looked to have been unscathed by the rain, despite the fact that it caused havoc in most areas of Karachi. A statement claims that despite the intense downpour, there were neither water pools in the streets of the gated community nor overflowing gutters that caused problems for the inhabitants.
