Tin Roof Flies Off Seven-Story Mumbai Building Amid Heavy Rain, Winds
NDTV
Multiple videos have emerged online since the sudden change in weather in Mumbai, first showing the city skyline darkening ominously with plumes of dust and strong winds swirling around.
The tin roof of a building in Mumbai's Kanjur Marg suburb was blown off and fell down the seven-floor structure Monday evening, as the city was buffeted by a dust storm, strong winds, and the first rainfall of the season. #MumbaiRain | Massive Dust Storm, Season's First Rain In Mumbai, Airport Ops Suspended https://t.co/KAvyurLLEGpic.twitter.com/9v095AZ2TO
The 40-second video shows a large tin sheet, one of several covering the roof of the building in the Aditya Society, flapping dangerously in the wind amid heavy rainfall. Fifteen seconds into the video a particularly strong gust picks up the sheet and tosses it around like a piece of cardboard.
The sheet, which appears to measure at least 50 feet in length, is thrown around on the roof before it is slowly pushed over the edge, dragging what seemed to be a steel superstructure and at least two other smaller sheets with it as it falls off the building.
