The Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) is set to experience its first significant evening pre-monsoon thunderstorms starting this Saturday and expected to persist through the subsequent five days (May 11-15). Monday and Tuesday are poised to represent the apex of this weather phenomenon. While the estimated distribution of rainfall serves as a guideline rather than an exact forecast, it provides a broad overview of what can be anticipated.
Areas including Kalyan, Karjat, Ulhasnagar, and certain parts of Navi Mumbai are primed to experience substantial rainfall, albeit not necessarily on a daily basis. Conversely, Mumbai proper and Palghar are likely to witness the highest likelihood of precipitation, particularly during the early hours of Sunday and the evening hours of Monday. Residents might awaken to cloudy, rainy mornings on both Sunday and Monday, evoking the imminent arrival of the monsoon season.
