In Navi Mumbai, heavy rains are expected in Vashi, Nerul, Koparkhairane, and Ghansoli, while Thane and other suburbs may experience light to moderate rain with occasional heavy downpours. The intensity of the monsoon suggests prolonged heavy rainfall, especially along the Konkan coast, with Mumbai likely to feel the brunt.
Today's temperature in Mumbai is predicted to range from a minimum of 25-27°C to a maximum of 30-32°C. High humidity levels (80-90%) will contribute to a rather uncomfortable and sticky feeling. Rainfall is estimated at a rate of 0.2-1.7 mm per hour, with localized heavier downpours possible. Winds are expected to be moderate to strong, blowing from the northwest or southwest at speeds of 14-22 km/hr, with gusts reaching up to 25 km/hr.

Atmospheric pressure is likely to remain between 1001-1004 hPa. Sunrise is expected around 6:10-6:15 am and sunset around 7:15-7:20 pm. Tide timings suggest a high tide around 5:00-5:30 am (approximately 3.5-3.8 m) and another at 5:30 - 6:00 pm (approximately 4.0-4.3 m).

Consequently, residents are advised to avoid traveling through low-lying areas due to potential disruptions from heavy rain and resulting traffic issues, especially on local trains.
