Mumbai woke up to cloudy skies and rain-soaked morning on Friday, with the India Meteorological Department (IMD) issuing a Yellow Alert for both today and tomorrow (September 5 and 6). Orange Alerts have also been issued for neighbouring districts such as Raigad, Palghar, and Thane.
The IMD’s five-day forecast indicates that heavy rainfall will continue until Saturday, particularly at isolated locations. However, rainfall intensity is expected to reduce from Sunday (September 7) onwards. IMD predicts moderate showers on Sunday and Monday, with no weather warnings currently in place.
With ongoing issues of water-logging and traffic congestion, further disruptions are likely over the next 48 hours, especially in low-lying areas. Commuters are advised to allow extra travel time and plan journeys accordingly.
