The rain water receded, and Mumbai struggled to get back to normal on Thursday. Out of 697 trees that fell since Tuesday, 477 were in the southern parts of Mumbai. The fallen trees and branches have been pushed to the side and most roads were opened by Thursday evening. However, the repairing of the fallen retaining wall of Hanging Gardens and road cave-in at Malabar Hill will take more days. Two deaths were also reported in separate incidents across the city in past two days.

There were 66 incidents of short circuit across the city in the past two days, of which 52 were from the southern parts of Mumbai. Shambhu Soni, 38, died due to electric shock in Mile Stone society, Anand Nagar, Dahisar East on Wednesday, at 9.30 am. A Central Railway employee, Sanjeet Kumar, 27, died of electric shock near Saibaba mandir, Masjid bandar early morning on Thursday.
