7th October Evening 6pm.

The thundershowers in Mumbai today is not unusual or alarming.  

As the movement of the low pressure system BB 14, moved across Central India, it has activated rainfall in Mumbai and Gujarat.

This resulted with an interaction with a Western Disturbance trough from North India. Hence the thunder.

This system activation was expected, and Monsoon Withdrawal date declaration held back ( see previous post).
