After about a year of very little to no rain, the clouds over Karachi poured and poured and poured some more. In a few words, it was bad. But baarish ke turse hue Karachiites still celebrated the arrival of the first (and hopefully not the last) Monsoon rains in their city. And their reactions couldn’t have been more Karachi-esque.

We aren’t saying whether or not this picture makes us jealous, but we get it Karachi, you have a beach (or several beaches), get over yourself.

And of course, hate was send towards Lahore and Islamabad
Karachites hate Lahore more than they love rain. #KarachiRain

Please bare with our rain tweets. Rain in Karachi is as rare as decent biryani in Lahore or cars on Islamabad roads after Asr

Here’s hoping the rain keeps coming, because baarish is awesome and Karachi sure needs to cool down a bit.
Waise, Karachi ho ya Lahore, Monsoon rain is awesome.
