The India Meteorological Department (IMD) today said that heavy to very heavy rainfall is likely in parts of Maharashtra due to a low pressure area formed over north-west and adjoining west-central Bay of Bengal.
An IMD official said, most of the places in Maharashtra received rain or thunderstorms yesterday. He said, heavy rainfall is expected over the Vidarbha region tomorrow while Madhya Maharashtra would receive thunderstorms accompanied with lightning. Mumbai and other parts of the western coast are likely to witness strong winds with speed reaching up to 50 to 60 km per hour.
The IMD yesterday said that the south west monsoon is expected to become active again over Mumbai and other parts of coastal Maharashtra from Monday after moderate rainfall in the city and neighbouring areas in the last two days.
