On Thursday, Mumbaikars woke up to cozy morning as light rains lashed city and adjoining areas. According to Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), the unseasonal rains are due to a deep depression that lies over the Arabian Sea.
On Wednesday, the depression moved westwards and now lays centred about 660 km southsouthwest of Mumbai in Maharashtra and 580 km west of Panjim in Goa. The temperatures in these areas, however, may see a slight drop due to these rains.
Amidst the rainfall, netizens took to Twitter to make the best out of the situation and express their thoughts.
Two deep depressions have developed in the Indian Ocean and they have brought the cloudy cover over several parts of the west coast, including parts of Gujarat, Mumbai, Konkan and Goa, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said in a late evening bulletin here. "Few places in Konkan and Goa are very likely to receive light rainfall in the next 24 hours (starting 8 pm on Wednesday)," it said.
