After weeks of drizzling, the monsoon is likely to return in full swing this week. Weather agencies have, however, ruled out heavy showers. Saturday witnessed a few significant spells.
While Santacruz received 10.6 mm of rainfall, Colaba recorded 9.6 mm. Mahesh Palawat, chief meteorologist, Skymet Weather, said, "Sunday will witness good showers. The situation is likely to continue for a few days." Explaining the reason, IMD scientist Ajay Kumar said, "A low pressure area has developed in the Bay of Bengal which will cause the rains to increase on the West Coast."
