Mumbai weather: Maharashtra capital looks like a dystopian city amid sandstorm; see pics,

On Monday afternoon, Mumbai experienced the onset of the monsoon season with heavy rains and an intense sandstorm, providing relief from scorching heat. Residents welcomed the change in weather, sharing images of the unusual phenomenon on social media platforms.

The sudden transition in weather conditions brought a sense of relief to the city's inhabitants, who had endured sweltering temperatures in recent days. The internet buzzed with visuals capturing the sandstorm and rainfall, depicting Mumbai in a dystopian light.

Alongside Mumbai, neighboring areas such as Thane also received rainfall. The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) issued forecasts warning of lightning and gusty winds reaching speeds of 30-40kmph at isolated locations. To caution residents, the regional weather center issued a 'Yellow' alert for several districts, including Thane, Palghar, Raigad, Ratnagiri, and Sindhudurg.

The sudden change in weather patterns is typical during the onset of the monsoon season in Mumbai and surrounding regions. While the rains bring relief from the scorching summer heat, they also pose challenges such as waterlogging and traffic disruptions in low-lying areas.

The anticipation of the monsoon's arrival is often met with mixed emotions by Mumbai's residents. While many welcome the respite from the heat, others brace themselves for the inconvenience caused by heavy rainfall and associated disruptions.

Despite the challenges posed by the sudden onset of the monsoon, Mumbai's residents are accustomed to adapting to the changing weather conditions. The city's infrastructure, including drainage systems and transportation networks, is often put to the test during the monsoon season, highlighting the resilience and resourcefulness of its inhabitants.

As Mumbai and surrounding areas continue to experience the initial spells of rainfall, residents remain vigilant and prepared for further fluctuations in weather patterns throughout the monsoon season.
