The meteorological department has issued a light‑rain advisory for Mumbai, noting that the city recorded a maximum of 0.59 mm of rainfall in the last 24 hours.
The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) released a weather bulletin for Mumbai, indicating that light rain is likely to affect the city later today. The advisory comes after the metropolis recorded a modest 0.59 mm of precipitation over the previous 24‑hour period, the highest amount recorded in that timeframe.
While the rainfall amount is relatively low, officials advise commuters to carry umbrellas and exercise caution on wet roads, especially in low‑lying areas prone to waterlogging. Public transport services are expected to operate normally, but minor delays may occur if localized flooding develops.
Residents are also reminded to stay updated through official IMD channels and local news outlets for any changes in the forecast. The short‑term rain is not expected to impact major events or business operations in the city.
