Mulund experienced the highest rainfall among suburbs, recording 200mm in just 24 hours. The intense downpour led to significant disruptions, including extensive waterlogging, a landslide near Gilbert Hill, and six house collapses. Public transport faced severe delays as well. The BMC noted slow drainage in areas such as Kurla and Chembur, leading to traffic reroutes. The Andheri subway was closed due to waterlogging, affecting Andheri Market, Library Junction in BKC, and Veera Desai Road. An uprooted tree near Hanuman Mandir in Bhandup West further worsened traffic. Waterlogging also impacted Dadar, Chunabhatti, Gandhi Market, Sion, and Dharavi. In the past 24 hours, Mumbai reported six house collapses, 32 fallen trees and nine short circuits.
