Mumbai Rain: Commuters complained that the Andheri subway, located between Andheri and Jogeshwari stations of the Western Railway was closed for traffic due to waterlogging. Traffic slowed down in parts of the suburbs as well.
Road traffic in some parts of Mumbai was affected and local train services slowed down to some extent this morning as moderate to heavy rains continued to lash the metropolis and its suburbs, officials said.
Ever since the southwest monsoon made its onset over Mumbai on June 25, the city has been getting heavy rain.
In the last 24 hours, Mumbai, its eastern suburbs and western suburbs received an average rainfall of 31 mm, 45 mm and 61 mm respectively, an official said.
The city has been getting moderate to heavy showers since early Friday and the intensity of rainfall is more in the suburbs, which resulted in waterlogging at some locations, he said.
