The struggle is real, my friends! Yes, I’m talking about none other than the current heat wave rolling across the country and Karachi, in particular, is boiling to the max!
Yes, records were broken. After the scorching 44 degrees centigrade broke the record of the hottest day of the city in the past 10 years, Karachi simmered down to 42°C.
Of course, hilarious tweets emerged, depicting the struggle with the unrelenting heat:
