Rain soaks Mumbai, disrupts traffic; IMD's orange alert in place today too
Mumbai: The city city and its adjoining areas reeled under continuous rainfall on Friday amid India Meteorological Department's orange alert, triggering traffic snarls in several places.

On Friday, the city saw a high tide of 4.66m at 12.40pm. BMC has advised Mumbaikars to avoid beaches and seafront areas when a high tide of 4.67m is expected at 1.20pm on Saturday, and of 4.6m at 1.56pm on Sunday. Heavy rainfall coinciding with a high tide can lead to waterlogging, as particularly in low-lying areas, as it prevents rainwater from draining into the sea. Among the areas that witnessed 10mm+ rainfall between 8am and 6pm were Andheri East (110mm), Andheri West (106mm) and Goregaon (105mm), according to the readings from BMC's automatic weather stations. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Eine zielgerichtete Strategie für Ihre finanzielle Zukunft eToro Click Here Undo Mulund recorded 96mm of rainfall, Ghatkopar 95mm, and Powai 94mm, while Sion and Wadala saw 39mm and 32mm, respectively. The persistent downpour led to traffic disruptions, with the Andheri subway forced to shut thrice in the day due to waterlogging. Traffic congestion was reported on the Western Express Highway at Goregaon (E) near NESCO towards Vakola flyover and Malad Link Road's south-bound arm near Infiniti mall. On the Eastern Express Highway, the Vikhroli-Chheda Nagar stretch and Amar Mahal-Sion stretch also saw bumper-to-bumper traffic. Mumbai Police issued a public advisory early on Friday, urging citizens to remain indoors, avoid coastal areas, and drive cautiously. Weather experts attributed the intense showers to an ongoing active monsoon phase. Athreya Shetty, an independent forecaster, said, "We're currently in the midst of active monsoon conditions. The strongest monsoon surge of the season so far is hitting the Konkan coast with winds of 40-60kmph, bringing in plenty of moisture. This, combined with a depression over West Bengal and adjoining areas and an active offshore trough, is responsible for heavy rains in Mumbai. The pull effect from the depression aligned the heaviest rainbands over Mumbai suburbs, Navi Mumbai, and Thane, leading to the heaviest downpours in these areas specifically."
