(3/3) Encouragingly, the IIT Bombay regional weather model also performed well at mumbaiflood.in/, successfully forecasting today's heavy rainfall. Hyperlocal forecasting are crucial for building more resilient cities. Hourly forecasts with waterlogging are coming soon.

(1/3) Powai received 125 mm of rain in the last 6 hours, with most of it falling within just 3–4 hours. This monsoon, Mumbai has seen late-night/early-morning, short-duration but extremely high-intensity rainfall events that severely stress urban infrastructure. #MumbaiRains
