Heavy Rain In Mumbai, 50 Flights Cancelled, Train Services Hit, Schools Shut

Heavy rains have hit Mumbai and its surrounding areas in the last 24 hours leading to widespread waterlogging and suburban train services. Some areas in the city have recorded over 300 mm of rainfall within six hours from 1 am to 7 am on Monday.

The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued an orange alert for Mumbai, Thane, Palghar and the Konkan belt. Vikhroli's Veer Savarkar Marg Municipal School and MCMCR Powai saw the highest rainfall in the last 24 hours as over 315 mm of rainfall was recorded.

Over 50 flights have been cancelled due to the downpour. Several airlines took to X (formerly Twitter) to warn passengers and urged them to check flight status before leaving for the airport.

Visuals from across the city showed people wading through waist-deep waters and cars lined bumper to bumper on Mumbai roads. All government, private and municipal schools and colleges have been shut across the city.

At Dombivli station, people waited for trains on submerged tracks. Water-logging was reported from Worli, Buntara Bhavan, in Kurla East, King's Circle area of Mumbai, Dadar and Vidyavihar Railway Station. Over 30 lakh commuters use the suburban local train services in Mumbai and neighbouring Thane, Palghar and Raigad every day.

Train services between Kasara and Titwala stations in Thane district were suspended after soil covered the tracks between Atgaon and Thansit stations, disrupting rail traffic on the busy Kalyan-Kasara route, they said.

The tracks were declared unsafe at around 6.30 am, the official said.

Officials have said if the rain stops for over two hours the waterlogging will subside but the weather office has predicted heavy rain throughout the day. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast heavy to very heavy rainfall in Mumbai today.

Sea waves of 4.4 meters are expected at high tide around 2 pm.

Several trains were diverted, rescheduled or terminated due to waterlogging between Kalyan and Kasara stations of Mumbai division.

Due to heavy rainfall and flash floods on the Vasind-Khardi section between 3 am and 6 am, the track embankment got damaged, officials told news agency PTI.

As of now, several teams of NDRF are deployed in Thane, Vasai ( Palghar), Mahad (Raigad), Chiplun (Ratnagiri), Kolhapur, Sangli, Satara Ghatkopar, Kurla and Sindhudurg.

The National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) rescued 49 people from a water-logged resort in Maharashtra's Thane and 16 villagers in Palghar. They used boats and life jackets to rescue people stranded at the resort due to flooding.

Mumbai Monsoon Mayhem: Trains Cancelled, BEST Buses Diverted Amid Waterlogging; Schools Declared Holiday

Heavy monsoon rains have lashed Mumbai, leading to significant disruptions across the city. Persistent downpours since early Monday have resulted in extensive waterlogging, causing authorities to cancel trains, divert BEST buses, and declare a holiday for schools.

The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) had issued a red alert for Mumbai, predicting extremely heavy rainfall. True to the forecast, several areas, including Sion, Dadar, Andheri, and Kurla, witnessed inundation. The relentless rains have brought Mumbai to a near standstill, reminiscent of the infamous July 2005 deluge.

Transport Woes

The waterlogged tracks forced the cancellation and delay of several local trains, the lifeline for millions of Mumbaikars. The Central Railway and Western Railway services were particularly affected, with many trains running significantly behind schedule or being halted altogether. Commuters stranded at various stations expressed frustration, with many unable to reach their workplaces or return home.

BEST buses, another critical mode of transport, faced severe disruptions. Multiple routes had to be diverted due to waterlogged streets, leaving commuters to find alternative means of transportation. The Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST) officials stated that they were closely monitoring the situation and making adjustments to routes as necessary to ensure passenger safety.

Schools Closed

In a move to ensure the safety of children, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) declared a holiday for all schools in Mumbai. The decision was taken early in the morning, following reports of severe waterlogging in several parts of the city. Parents were notified through various channels, including SMS, emails, and social media, advising them to keep their children at home.

Rescue and Relief Operations

The BMC, along with the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), has been actively engaged in rescue and relief operations. Pumping stations across the city have been operating at full capacity to reduce water levels in the most affected areas. However, continuous rainfall has hampered these efforts. The BMC has also set up emergency helplines and urged residents to avoid non-essential travel.

Public Advisory

Authorities have advised residents to stay indoors and refrain from venturing out unless absolutely necessary. The IMD has forecasted that heavy to very heavy rainfall will continue over the next 24 hours. Citizens are urged to stay updated through official channels and avoid spreading or reacting to unverified information on social media.

Looking Ahead

As Mumbai grapples with the current situation, there is a growing call for better infrastructure and more robust measures to handle such extreme weather events. While the city's resilience is well-known, the frequent disruptions caused by monsoon rains highlight the need for long-term solutions to ensure smoother functioning during the rainy season.

In the meantime, Mumbaikars are bracing for more rains, hoping for a quick return to normalcy as the city battles yet another monsoon fury. For more latest news India, subscribe to our newsletter today.
