Monsoon Revival Drenches Mumbai's Western Suburbs with Heavy Rains

Mumbai's western suburbs experienced heavy rainfall in a 24-hour period ending Thursday morning, with some areas receiving over 100 mm of rain. The monsoon revival caused a dip in temperatures and triggered minor incidents, but no major water logging or train disruptions were reported.

Mumbai's western suburbs were drenched by heavy rains as the monsoon made a vigorous comeback, civic officials reported Thursday. Triple-digit rainfall figures were recorded in several areas over a 24-hour period, ending Thursday morning.

An official from the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) detailed that areas stretching from Malad to Dahisar experienced significant downpours starting from Wednesday morning. The Eksar area in Borivali (West) stood out with the highest rainfall, recording 140.6 mm.

Although the island city and eastern suburbs saw less intense showers, the average rainfall data from BMC's disaster management department indicated considerable variation across Mumbai. Despite the heavy rains, the city avoided major water logging and train service disruptions, though minor incidents such as tree falls and house collapses were reported.
