After Sunday’s drizzle, Mumbai is expected to witness heavy pre-monsoon showers by June 11. Eastern and central suburbs and the island city received light showers on Sunday which are now likely to intensify over the next few days due to a cyclonic storm. A low-pressure zone created over the Arabian sea and an offshore trough over the western coast from Maharashtra to Kerala have sped up the arrival of the rains.
