Heavy to very heavy rainfall continues to lash out Mumbai and adjoining areas on Thursday. As a result of this many areas in the city were inundated.

While Mumbai, which was put on yellow alert by the weather bureau, has now been upgraded to orange alert (heavy to very heavy rainfall very likely), India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a red alert (extremely heavy rainfall very likely) for neighbouring Thane, Palghar, Raigad and Ratnagiri.
