In a bid to strengthen its monsoon preparedness, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has partnered with private weather agency Skymet to access high-resolution, hyperlocal rainfall forecasts. These forecasts will aid BMC’s disaster management unit in issuing more precise alerts and deploying timely flood-mitigation measures across Mumbai. With ward-level granularity, the forecasts will support real-time decision-making to better tackle waterlogging, traffic disruptions, and emergency responses during intense spells of rain.
