The city will witness 22 days of high tide in the Arabian Sea during the four months of monsoon this year. Data from the Disaster Management Department of the BMC shows that seven days in June and four days in July, five days each August and six days in September will be high-tide days. The highest tide of 4.84 metres will occur on September 20 at 1pm.


If the heavy rain occurs during the high tides, there are chances of flooding in lower parts of the city despite cleaning of drains.  In 2021, Mumbai witnessed 18 days of high tides and in 2022 there were 22 days of high tide during monsoon. Last year, there were 25 days of high tide and the highest tide of 4.87 metres occurred on August 3 and 4, at about 1.14 pm and 1.56 pm.
