metropolis and its suburbs during the next two days. Forecasting agencies have also said that there would be the second spell of heavy rainfall this monsoon after a gap of a fortnight.
Private forecaster, Skymet Weather, has advised Mumbaikars to avoid going out on August 4 and 5. "The intensity of the rainfall will start decreasing from August 6," it said.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has advised fishermen to not venture deep into the Bay of Bengal till August 6 as surface winds with speeds up to 50 kmph will make the sea conditions very rough.
Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has ordered the closure of all offices and establishment, except essentials. It has issued suitable warnings and advisories to all coastal security agencies, disaster management department and Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST). The body has requested people to stay indoors unless extremely necessary.
Rainfall has also caused waterlogging at Hindmata, Dadar TT, Sakkar Panchayat, SIES College, Goel Deul, Bhendi Bazar Junction, JJ Junction, Thakurdwar Naka, Shanmukhananda Hall, Shaikh Mistri Dargah Road, Postal Colony, the BMC said.
According to Central Railway update, suburban services on the main line and Harbour line will remain suspended due to waterlogging.
"Due to high tide resulting in waterlogging at Vadala and Parel, suburban services are suspended on main line and harbour line. However, shuttle services are running between Vashi and Panvel, Thane and Kalyan-beyond. No suburban trains are being held up in stations. Down mail/express trains are being rescheduled," Shivaji Sutar, Central Railway CPRO has said.
Deputy Director-General, IMD Mumbai, KS Hosalikar said, "In the last three hours, Mumbai and neighbouring areas have received very intense rainfall. Mumbai is now on Red Alert, with possibilities of extremely heavy rainfall at isolated places."
Heavy-to-very heavy rainfall and thunderstorms are likely to lash many parts of Madhya Pradesh, too, where the monsoon activity has remained subdued so far.
In north India, sultry weather prevailed in Delhi, Punjab and Haryana as the monsoon trough, which was active over the region last week, shifted southwards.
Meanwhile, the flood situation in Assam improved on August 4 as the water receded from many areas, though one more person lost his life in the deluge. This year, floods and landslides have damaged roads and other infrastructure at several places and claimed 136 lives in Assam, according to official estimates.
The number of flood-hit people decreased by 4.65 lakh since Sunday but around 3.89 lakh people in 17 districts are still affected, the Assam government said in a bulletin.
The Brahmaputra river is flowing above the danger mark at Dhubri town, Nimatighat in Jorhat and Tezpur in Sonitpur districts. Its tributaries Dhansiri, Jia Bharali and Kopili are also flowing above the danger level.
