Even as the rain took a break in Mumbai, heavy showers in the catchment areas of the lakes in Thane and Nashik have led to a significant rise in water levels. The water required for a whole month was accumulated in a day. 

On Saturday, the seven lakes that supply water to the city had 4.18 million litres of water or 29 per cent of the total stock. On Sunday, the stock increased to 5.16 lakh million litres or 37 per cent of the stock. The increased stock is enough to supply water to the entire city for at least 25 days while the entire available stock will suffice for four months.
