The India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Sunday predicted 'moderate spells of rain' in <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/mumbai-rains-imd-predicts-drop-in-rainfall-intensity-23300722" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Mumbai</a> and its suburbs.
"Moderate rainfall likely in Mumbai city and suburbs today," said <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/mumbai/mumbai-news/article/mumbai-aarey-milk-colony-road-feels-like-moons-surface-23300725" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation</a> (BMC) said on Sunday.
A high tide of about 4.03 metres is expected to hit Mumbai at 10.13 am today, while another high tide of about 3.47 metres is expected at 9.56 pm, stated Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC). The civic body also said that a low tide of about 2.21 metres is expected at 4.07 pm today.
The island city, eastern and western suburbs received an average rainfall of 12.12 mm, 17.07 mm and 17.34 mm respectively in 24 hours ending 8 am, the civic body's data showed.
On Thursday, heavy rains lashed the city, especially its northern parts, causing water-logging at many places which badly affected the movement of vehicles.
The BMC had declared a holiday for all schools and colleges on Thursday. However, all government and private schools as well as all colleges are open on Friday.
The civic body said it did not announce a holiday for schools and colleges in the city for Friday as there was just a 'yellow' alert of rainfall.
A fake letter announcing a holiday for schools and colleges on July 28 was going viral on social media, the BMC said, and appealed to people not to believe it.
Due to heavy rains, water-logging was witnessed on Thursday in Matunga, DN Nagar, Byculla, Trombay, Azad Maidan, Kandivali, Kalbadevi, Oshiwara, Dahisar, Magathane on Thursday, with water being almost half-feet in most of these areas.
The Modak Sagar lake built on the Vaitarna river in neighbouring Thane district started overflowing at 10.52 pm on Thursday night.
This is the fourth lake, after Vihar, Tansa and Tulsi, to overflow this monsoon season.
Mumbai receives 3,800 MLD (millions of litres per day) water from the seven reservoirs - Bhatsa, Upper Vaitarna, Middle Vaitarna, Tansa, Modak Sagar, Vihar and Tulsi - located in Mumbai, Thane and Nashik districts.
