Mumbai may have had a delayed monsoon but in the two days that it poured, it toppled some records as well as covered about 97 per cent of the average required June rainfall. In 24 hours on Saturday, IMD’s Santacruz observatory recorded 234.8mm — the highest 24-hour June rain since 2015. Also, Saturday’s rain is the second highest rainfall for June in Mumbai in a 24-hour period in the last decade. The IMD classifies rainfall of 234.8mm and more as "extremely heavy".
