Mumbai Rains: Heavy Rain In Maximum City, High Tide Warning by BMC

Mumbai: Mumbai and its neighbouring regions have been facing heavy rainfall over the past few days. The India Meteorological Department had issued a red alert for Mumbai and the surrounding districts of Thane, Palghar, and Raigad. The downpour has continued to disrupt life in the city on Friday as well. 

Heavy rains returned to lash Mumbai and suburbs on Wednesday, inundating low-lying areas, stopping local trains on tracks between Kurla and Thane stations and stranding passengers even as traffic crawled on roads.

IMD scientist Sushma Nair said a trough runs from north Konkan to south Bangladesh across a cyclonic circulation over south Chhattisgarh and its neighbourhood extending to the middle tropospheric level tilting southwards with height.

"This will lead to fairly widespread to widespread light/moderate rainfall is very likely over Konkan and Goa during the week," she said.
