The impact of the weather system is expected to extend beyond Mumbai, with the Konkan coast and Vidarbha region likely to receive widespread rainfall over the coming days.
Districts including Palghar, Thane, Raigad, Ratnagiri and Sindhudurg may experience intermittent heavy showers during the week. In Vidarbha, cities such as Nagpur, Amravati, Akola, Chandrapur, Bhandara, Gondia and Gadchiroli are likely to receive moderate rainfall, especially around the middle of the week.
Meteorologists believe the increased atmospheric moisture associated with the low-pressure system will keep rainfall activity active across much of Maharashtra through Saturday.
