An online report by the Indian Express said heavy showers battered Mumbai for the second consecutive day on Monday, with the Colaba coastal observatory recording over 100 millimeters of rainfall between Sunday and Monday morning, triggering intense waterlogging and traffic snarls, News.Az reports, citing foreign media.
Movement of trains was partially affected in Mumbai due to waterlogging on the rails.
