Since Tuesday midnight, parts of the city had been getting drizzles with occasional spells of moderate to heavy rains. ?The island city, eastern suburbs and western suburbs recorded rainfall of 17.22 mm, 6.37 mm, 3.56 mm rainfall, respectively, in the last 24 hours, the civic officials said.?

"Welcome back #MumbaiRains after a long break! #Mumbai," a citizen tweeted. Another citizen, Sidharth Shah, tweeted, "It has been raining in #Kandiviliwest all morning... not heavy rains though...was hoping for a clear day today so that I can bike it up to work but looks like not a bright idea."

Officials said that the suburban public transport services of both the Central Railway and the Western Railway, along with Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST) are running normally. ?
