Monsoon vibes took a wild turn in India’s bustling Mumbai on Monday as relentless downpours triggered a citywide red alert 🚨. The civic body, BMC, announced a day off for all schools and colleges to keep everyone safe.
By midday, low-lying areas from Dadar to Andheri were waterlogged, forcing auto-rickshaws to wade through waist-deep puddles and local trains to run on delayed schedules. Commuters shared viral videos of flooded bus stops and cars stalled roadside — talk about a wet travel nightmare! 🚗💦
If you’re in Mumbai or planning to step out, here are a few quick tips:
- Avoid non-essential travel, especially near coastal roads and underpasses.
- Keep your phone charged and key emergency numbers saved. 📱
- Stay updated via local weather apps or BMC alerts for real-time info.
Monsoon season always brings its share of drama, but with a little prep and patience, you can ride out the storm. Stay dry, stay safe, and keep an eye on those clouds! ☔
