In just one hour, Nariman Point received 104 mm, though IMD classified it as an 'intense rain spell,' not a cloudburst. The heavy showers exposed the city's lack of preparedness, causing waterlogging in new areas, including the Acharya Atre Chowk Metro station and Mantralaya. Train and flight services were disrupted, with over 68 train services cancelled and multiple flights diverted. Several incidents of building damage, road cracks, and tree falls were reported.
