Mumbai: #Mumbai Rains trends on twitter as the city receives its first drizzle after facing a terrific heatwave. This morning was a pleasant morning and a blessing to our fellow Mumbaikars, after the city witnessed light showers in parts of South Mumbai and Nerul in Navi Mumbai.
Mumbai received light rains on Monday night and on Tuesday morning, which brought some relief from the unbearable heatwave the city has been witnessing from the past month, as Mumbaikars are filled with joy.
On Saturday night, parts of Mumbai including Dadar, Matunga, Parel, and areas in Navi Mumbai also received light rains.
As per the 24 hours forecast, Mumbai is likely to witness generally cloudy skies today, with the possibility of light rain or drizzle in the evening or night.
But the bad news is that the humidity levels increased due to the light rains. At IMD’s Santacruz observatory (representative of the city), relative humidity on Tuesday morning was at 71 per cent. At Colaba, it was 87 per cent. The relative humidity is 90 and above during the monsoon season
Following the rains, the minimum temperature recorded at the Colaba observatory was a degree below normal at 27 degrees Celsius. At Santacruz, the temperature was 29.2 degrees Celsius, a degree above normal.
Mumbaikars who could not control themselves, flooded social media platforms with pictures, videos and memes. #MumbaiRains is also trending on Twitter
