Mumbai is known as the financial capital of India and it is one of those cities of the world which never sleep but on Monday morning, the Mumbaikars were not able to leave their bed as the weather got cold due to the unexpected rains in the month of December. Mumbai does get heavy rains in the rainy season but rains in December were quite unusual. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) predicted that there are good chances that Mumbai and its nearby areas such as Thane, Palghar and Navi Mumbai will experience rainfall in the next 24 hours and the temperature will also lower down and will remain around 22-23 degrees for the next 48 hours.

IMD also stated that a lower level confluence is being formed over central India due to the combination of north westerly and south easterly winds. The IMD also stated that rainfall would decrease by evening but visibility would still be low.
