Mumbai remains on an IMD “red alert” for extremely heavy rainfall, with the agency warning that there is no immediate relief. Multiple reports say the city has already recorded more than 100 mm of rain in several areas over the past 24 hours. One outlet also cites rainfall levels reaching around 300 mm, reflecting the severity of the downpour. Local officials report that some parts of the city are experiencing waterlogging, including the Lokmanya Tilak Terminus area, where flooding affects surroundings around the station. Despite the adverse weather conditions, civic reports state that public transport continues to operate, indicating services are running even as rainfall intensifies. Across the coverage, the central points are the IMD’s warning of continued extremely heavy rainfall, the significant accumulation already observed in different locations, and localized disruption from waterlogging while transport remains operational. The reports consistently characterize the situation as high-risk due to ongoing rainfall rather than a temporary spell.
