Just four days after the BMC told the Bombay High Court it was ready for the monsoon, a series of disasters across the city have washed away all the false claims Santacruz recorded 231 mm of rainfall from 8 am on Sunday to 8 am on Monday, whereas Colaba recorded 99 mm. This was followed by 48.3 mm in Santacruz and 43 mm in the island city until 8.30 pm last night. Western suburbs, such as Borivli and Kandivli, saw heavy rainfall.
