The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has cautioned of heavy to very heavy rainfall as the southwest monsoon progresses into various parts of Maharashtra, including Mumbai, Konkan, and Pune on Sunday.
IMD has issued different alerts for regions in Maharashtra: a red alert for Sindhudurg, an orange alert for Ratnagiri, and a yellow alert for Palghar, Thane, Mumbai, and Raigad. Extensive rainfall, potentially exceeding 204 mm in 24 hours, is anticipated over coastal Karnataka, Konkan, and Madhya Maharashtra until Monday.
Heavy rainfall resulted in a section of a road collapsing in Palghar district, causing traffic disruptions on the Mumbai-Ahmedabad highway for more than four hours on Sunday.
Mumbai and its environs experienced substantial rainfall over the past 24 hours, providing relief from the prevailing heat and humidity. Additionally, several districts, including Thane, Nashik, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Ahmednagar, Satara, and Jalgaon, received noteworthy precipitation.
Thane and Palghar districts encountered heavy overnight showers, resulting in localized waterlogging and minor incidents of tree branches falling.
