On Monday, occasional moderate showers hit sections of Mumbai and the metropolitan region. Last week, the city and MMR had significant to very heavy rainfall, which disrupted railway and aircraft services and pushed traffic in the city off track. However, after experiencing such heavy precipitation on Monday, the city awoke on Tuesday morning to overcast skies.

In its Mumbai weather update, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) predicted moderate to heavy rain in the city and suburbs during the next 24 hours.
