It’s the end of June and usually by this time Mumbaikars are accustomed to heavy rain showers and carrying their umbrellas like a limb. However, this time around, the rain Gods are running a little behind their schedule and after waiting for almost a month –we were finally hit with a ‘Mumbai-style’ shower today!
After suffering through excruciating heat and humidity, the rains are a blessing for Mumbaikars; a much needed change of weather to provide a little relief. And whether you’re at your office or home, we’re sure you’re sitting with a hot beverage in your hands, making Instagram Stories and thinking ‘Thank God!’ And not just you, all of Mumbai is sharing the same sentiment right now, as twitter trends with #MumbaiRains! Netizens are sharing their relief as well as concern over the drainage and the traffic conditions. Check it out:
