IMD predicts 'very heavy rainfall over Mumbai

June 25, 2016 12:00

Even as heavy rains lashed Mumbai for most part of Friday, the Indian Meteorological Department issued a forecast for heavy-to-very-heavy rainfall across the city, along with Konkan and Goa, and Alibag over the weekend.

BMC officials said that there was a 4.42 m high tide around 3 pm, coinciding with incessant heavy rains, on Friday.

"This led to waterlogging at some spots like Hindmata, Parel TT. However, we opened the manholes within minutes and deployed labour to clear the water from these lowlying areas," an official said.
