As per the latest forecast, northern Maharashtra-including Mumbai-and parts of central Maharashtra are expected to see more consistent monsoon showers by June 25. This marks another revision in the expected timeline, as earlier predictions had placed the onset around June 18-19, which was later shifted to June 22-23.

Initially, the monsoon was expected to reach Mumbai around June 10-11, but its progress along the western coast has remained stalled since June 8.

However, the system continued to remain sluggish, with the weather office later indicating that it could stay stuck near Harnai in South Konkan until at least June 20. This prolonged stagnation has contributed to the delayed arrival over Maharashtra, including Mumbai.
