<p>Incessant rain with intermittent heavy spells led to waterlogging on some low-lying areas and roads of the city.</p>
<p>Some railway tracks also faced waterlogging, slowing down the public transport services in the morning.</p>
<p>The suburban trains were on Friday morning running at least 15 to 20 minutes late, commuters told the PTI.</p>
<p>According to the news agency, a railway official said water has accumulated on tracks at Chunabhatti on the Harbour line due to heavy showers coupled with high tide.</p>
<p>High tide and heavy rains can potentially cause flooding in low-lying areas as water doesn't flow into the sea during that time.</p>
<p>The movement of trains has slowed down a bit, he said.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, in the last 24 hours ending at 8 am, Mumbai's island city recorded an average rainfall of 78 mm. The figure for eastern Mumbai and western Mumbai was 57 mm and 67 mm rainfall, the civic officials said on Friday.</p>
