Mumbaikars out on streets and inside their house were equally scared as flooding across city due to incessant rainfall through the night on Monday brought back the memories of 2005 deluge.

While several were stuck in the flooded streets, many spent hours at night flushing out water from their ground-floor house. Santosh Malwankar, a resident of Magathane in Borivali East, and his family stayed awake the entire night taking turns to scoop out water from their flat. Interestingly, it wasn't the floodwater that had entered their house; instead water was seeping through the cracks on the floor.
