After being battered by rain for two days in a row on the weekend, Mumbai saw a relief from rainfall on Monday. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) withdrew its earlier orange alert for Mumbai for Monday, and changed it to a yellow one while issuing a green alert for Tuesday. Other coastal districts of Maharashtra, such as Palghar, Thane, Raigad, and Ratnagiri, were also issued a yellow alert for Monday, and a green alert for Tuesday. 

For two days in a row, the Colaba observatory recorded over 100 mm of rainfall in a span of 24 hours, between 8 am on Saturday and 8 am on Sunday, and from 8 am on Sunday and 8 am on Monday.
