The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) issues a five-day weather forecast predicting heavy to very heavy rainfall in Mumbai and parts of Maharashtra around Ganesh Chaturthi. The forecast points to heavy to very heavy rain at isolated places on September 13, followed by moderate rainfall on September 14.
Across the available reports, the IMD’s update is the central reference. Both sources describe the same timing and intensity—an initial heavier spell on September 13, then reduced intensity the next day. The reporting focuses on the IMD’s forecast window extending to September 15, indicating continued monitoring for possible rain activity beyond September 14, but without additional event-specific details in the provided text.
Overall, the common angle is the reliance on IMD’s forecast and the specific expectation of heavier rain on September 13 in Mumbai, with moderate conditions on September 14.
