The India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Wednesday said that moderate rainfall is likely in Mumbai.

IMD in its 24-hour forecast has predicted moderate rainfall in city and suburbs with the possibility of heavy rainfall at isolated places.

The IMD on Wednesday said that the island city, eastern suburbs, and western suburbs recorded 30.74 mm, 64.97 mm and 64.05 mm rain, respectively, in the last 24 hours.

Meanwhile, a high tide of 4.56 metres is expected at 12.48 pm in Mumbai today. Also, a low tide of 0.72 metres is likely to occur at 6.52 pm today.
