After a few days of intense heat, Mumbai on Saturday woke up to a cold breeze and pleasant weather. While some parts witnessed moderate rainfall, a few areas in the Western suburbs experienced heavy rainfall in the morning. The IMD has issued a yellow alert.

Though these light showers brought respite from the heat, it also caused inconvenience to residents, especially the working class and those with respiratory illnesses. “I travel from Vasai to Andheri for my work. This unpredictable rainfall, that too in the month of May, is inconveniencing me. Weather forecasts are not always accurate, so one is not prepared while leaving home,” said 29-year-old Vaibhav Malkar.
