Rains, paired with thunderstorms, swept across parts of Mumbai on Friday evening, causing commuters to seek shelter and resulting in traffic delays.
Areas such as Borivali, Dahisar, and Kurla experienced moderate to heavy showers with thunder and lightning, according to civic officials.
The showers, reported also in Thane, Navi Mumbai, and Raigad districts, provided a reprieve from the warm, humid conditions, though waterlogging was an issue in low-lying areas. Some regions recorded over 50 mm of rain within an hour, but transport services remained unaffected.
