Maharashtra Mumbai Rains Highlights: Thane Pune Raigad Severe Waterlogging, Landslides, Disrupted Train Services
Heavy monsoon rains in Maharashtra caused swollen rivers, disrupted train services, landslides, and waterlogging, impacting safety and daily life.
Several parts of Maharashtra continued to grapple with the monsoon fury as rivers swelled up, train services were disrupted, and landslides and waterlogging incidents threatened people's safety. In Pune district's Pimpri Chinchwad, a huge mound of garbage crashed onto a three-storey building, causing it to collapse. The incident occurred at Moshi, where the building was being used as an administrative office of a private company processing waste at the site on behalf of the civic body.
Today, thunderstorm accompanied with lightning, gusty winds (30-40 kmph) with heavy rainfall at isolated places has been forecasted for places like Mumbai, Thane, Palghar, Raigad, Pune, Ratnagiri, Dhule, Nandurbar, Jalgaon, Nashik, Chandrapur, and Gadchiroli.
Mumbai woke up to an overcast sky, but largely rain-free conditions on Thursday after days of incessant monsoon showers, even as the India Meteorological Department (IMD) forecast intermittent rainfall later in the day.
Despite the cloudy weather, it did not rain in most parts of the city during the morning, providing relief after a prolonged wet spell that had caused waterlogging, tree falls, traffic snarls and disruption to suburban rail services.
The IMD has forecast a generally cloudy sky with intermittent light to moderate rainfall in the city and suburbs during the day. Heavy rainfall is likely at isolated places, accompanied by lightning, thunder and occasional gusty winds reaching speeds of 40-50 kmph, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) said.
