While many of us enjoy the monsoon season, these untimely showers in Mumbai are a total disaster. We all know how climate change is a devastating environmental threat to not just Mumbai but the entire mankind. People from all around the globe have time and again come together to raise awareness about this crucial subject.
According to Mumbai Mirror, the unseasonal rains are due to a deep depression that lies over the Arabian Sea. Over the last couple of days, the skies had been cloudy and the Met department had predicted a slight chance of light rains.
However, the unseasonal rains led to an array of thoughts from Mumbaikars. From being confused to disappointed to sharing sarcastic views, have a look at what the residents of Mumbai had to say:
