Last 3 hours' rainfall in Powai, as seen on https://t.co/KNrsSVSnjN, we forecasted very heavy rainfall. The Hiranandani video captures the situation. Citizens reported waterlogging through our portal. Thank you to everyone who reported! - funded by HE IITB Innovation Lab.

Next 3 days, very heavy to extreme rainfall expected in Mumbai as per the forecasts by @Pujaiitb @ClimateIITB @iitbombay . Stay safe and report waterlogging at https://t.co/KNrsSVSnjN @rmurtugudde @Sheebuski @EnggHead @HarithaMb @ganeshsqaure

We forecasted correctly for yesterday and the forecast seems correct also for today looking the heavy rain happening now in Powai. A snapshot from https://t.co/KNrsSVSnjN, you may start following the webportal, though we are updating it and adding a few new experimental services.

(1/3) Powai received 125 mm of rain in the last 6 hours, with most of it falling within just 3–4 hours. This monsoon, Mumbai has seen late-night/early-morning, short-duration but extremely high-intensity rainfall events that severely stress urban infrastructure. #MumbaiRains

A paper close to both @rmurtugudde and me: hyperlocal extreme rainfall forecasting for Mumbai. More than a new ML model—it was operational on https://t.co/KNrsSVSnjN during 2024 & 25 (and will be in 2026), serving 70,000+ users, helping @mybmc https://t.co/B63lGP9vCl @Pujaiitb

How good were our 2025 experimental forecasts? Our models were able to capture heavy rainfall events even 2–3 days in advance,underlining the importance of multi–lead-day forecasts for early warning systems. 🌧️

[Centre for Climate Studies, IIT Bombay @ClimateIITB]

🌧️With the end of 2025 monsoon, we’re wrapping up our experimental daily rainfall forecasts.
Forecasts will return with the onset of 2026 monsoon!

This is a really powerful way for citizens to participate in mitigating, preparing for & managing floods. Please participate. @subimal_ghosh, @Sheebuski, Flood team, IITB & partners. Co-producing solutions is the most effective way to bring science to serve society. To be scaled
