Netizens believed that the rainfall would help improve AQI by bringing down the pollution levels in the city. Some people thanked the rainfall for pouring down and giving a solution to humidity experienced in the last few days of November. In general, citizens welcomed and enjoyed the rain which was unseasonal but predicted.
Weather forecast agencies reported earlier that the region along with few others on Maharashtra coastline would receive rainfall on 26/11 and the next day. The reason behind the same was stated to be a trough (low pressure) formed in Bay Of Bengal moving south east, leading to light to moderate rainfall. The IMD predicted a downpour in the city and its neighbourhood accompanied with lightning and gusty winds on Sunday.
