Local weatherman Rushikesh Agre who goes by the username Mumbai Rains on X (formerly Twitter) said this could be the last relatively dry week for Mumbai. Rain chances are expected to gradually rise from June 16-18, as dry air intrusion reduces and stronger moisture flow brings better rainfall activity along the coast.
