A cyclonic circulation is persisting over Kutch and adjoining South Pakistan. An east-west shear zone is passing via Mumbai along latitude 19 degree north between 5.8 and 7.6 km above mean sea level.
In the view of above weather parameters, moderate rains with one or two heavy spells are expected to continue over north Konkan and Goa including Mumbai and suburbs during the next 48 hours. As we have already stated that there will not be any very heavy downpour over Mumbai and suburbs. Therefore, flash floods and severe waterlogging are ruled out which would have caused difficulty in commuting.
These on and off rain and thundershower activities are expected to continue until August 21 or 22. The cloud cover and intermittent rain will keep the temperature below normal. The weather of Mumbai and suburbs will remain present for at least the next week.
