The India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Friday in its 24-hour forecast has predicted light to moderate rain in city and suburbs with the possibility of intense spells at isolated places.
According to data shared by the BMC, the island city, eastern suburbs, and western suburbs recorded 0.21 mm, 3.94 mm and 0.02 mm rain, respectively, in the last 24 hours.
Meanwhile, a high tide of 3.83 metres is expected at 2.03 pm in Mumbai. Also, a low tide of 0.93 metres is likely to occur at 8.01 pm today.
When there is a high tide during the rainy season, it becomes difficult for the flooded water to recede. Low tide helps floodwaters in the city to find an outlet to enter the seas.
Meanwhile, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Saturday issued a bulletin forecasting the intensification of a presently developing low-pressure system into a cyclone in north Andhra Pradesh and adjoining south Odisha by September 26 evening.
The cyclone is likely to cross north Andhra Pradesh and its adjacent south Odisha in the next 12 hours.
"Depression intensified into a Deep Depression over North and adjacent central BoB, likely to intensify into a CS next 12 hours and to cross south Odisha north Andhra Pradesh coasts around Kalingapatnam by September 26 evening," IMD tweeted.
Further, IMD issued a yellow alert for cyclones at both locations.
"Cyclone Alert for north Andhra Pradesh and adjoining south Odisha coasts Yellow Message #imd #cyclone," IMD said further in a tweet.
On Friday, the department had also issued a pre-cyclone watch for north Andhra Pradesh and adjoining south Odisha coasts.
"Depression over East-central & adjoining Northeast Bay of Bengal: Pre-Cyclone Watch for north Andhra Pradesh and adjoining south Odisha coasts," IMD tweeted on Friday night.
