As rain took a break in the city, humidity and heat have taken over to keep Mumbaikars drenched throughout the day. Relief seems unlikely, with the weatherman predicting a few spells of passing showers over the next few days. In the 24 hours ending 8.30 am on Sunday, the IMD Santacruz observatory recorded just 1.1 mm of rain, while the Colaba observatory recorded no rain. The maximum temperature could rise up to 32 degrees Celsius over the next 24 to 48 hours. Due to the intense rains, Mumbai’s highest temperature dropped below 28 degrees or 29 degrees on the majority of days in July.
