Several suburbs and parts of the city have reported flooding, property damage, and waterlogging. The water level rose above 4 feet in some areas causing severe damage.
The central part of Mumbai was the worst affected. The electric poles in many residential areas fell down which led to a blackout and posed as a death threat to a number of citizens. All the means of public transport were cancelled resulting in monetary losses and heavy inconvenience.
North Konkan is very likely to receive heavy rainfall at isolated places for the next 24 hours. The intensity of the fall is expected to reduce later.
