Mumbai is expected to experience generally cloudy skies with occasional spells of light to moderate rain in the city and suburbs on Tuesday, according to the latest Mumbai weather update.
The average rainfall recorded between 8 am on August 24 and 8 am on August 25 was 2.10 mm in the city, 2.61 mm in the eastern suburbs and 2.90 mm in the western suburbs.
The city is expected to witness high tides at 10:46 am, reaching 3.78 metres, and at 10:35 pm, reaching 3.32 metres.
Low tides are expected at 4:54 pm, measuring 1.95 metres, and at 4:28 am on August 26, measuring 1.05 metres.
Meanwhile, heavy rain lashed several parts of Delhi and adjoining areas of the National Capital Region (NCR) on Tuesday morning, triggering widespread waterlogging and prompting the India Meteorological Department (IMD) to issue a red alert for the region.
The city remained under a thick blanket of clouds as persistent showers affected normal life in several areas. Water accumulated on roads and low-lying stretches, raising concerns about traffic disruptions during the morning rush hour.
The IMD issued a district-level nowcast warning covering North Delhi, Central Delhi, North East Delhi, North West Delhi, West Delhi, South West Delhi, New Delhi, South Delhi, South East Delhi, Shahdara and East Delhi. The red alert was valid until 9:45 a.m.
Heavy showers were reported from several prominent locations, including Parliament Street, Connaught Place, the AIIMS area, ITO, R.K. Puram and Ferozeshah Road.
According to the latest IMD forecast, moderate rainfall is likely at many places across Delhi, while isolated locations may experience heavy to extremely heavy showers. Thunderstorms accompanied by lightning and gusty winds are also expected over the capital.
The weather warning comes a day after intense rainfall threw normal life out of gear across Delhi-NCR, causing extensive waterlogging, traffic congestion and disruption to flight operations.
Gurugram and Faridabad have been placed under a yellow alert, with further rainfall expected in the two NCR cities. Noida remained heavily overcast, although the IMD had not issued any specific weather warning for the city.
