Mumbai (Maharashtra): The India Meteorological Department (IMD) warned of high tide in Mumbai on Thursday afternoon.
"High tide of 4.52 metres expected at 13:43 hours in Mumbai today," the IMD said.
Over the years, high tides couple with heavy rains have often led to flooding in several areas of the city.
Earlier this month, heavy showers, often accompanied by thunder, were witnessed in Mumbai and the suburbs, leading to flooding in some areas.
Most parts of south Mumbai received between 4 to 6cm of rain, resulting in waterlogging at some spots and hindering traffic flow.
Flooding was reported in Cuffe Parade, Bhulabhai Desai Road, Worli, Dadar, Parel, Chira Bazaar, Masjid Bunder and surroundings.
In the suburbs, waterlogging was reported in Andheri forcing closure of the subway, and vehicle movement had slowed down in Borivali, Malad and Jogeshwari areas.
