Currently heavy rain in northern Mumbai. Our model forecasted reduction in widespread extreme rainfall, but with scattered heavy rain. The model got it right. Weather forecasts should be based on scientific model, not thousands of intuitions on X. Hopefully this will stop soon.
Rainfall intensity is expected to reduce further from tomorrow. Moderate to scattered heavy rainfall is forecasted for tomorrow, and Light rainfall is forecasted from the day after.
