India
Mumbai is set for a rainy weekend, with the IMD forecasting moderate showers after nearly a week of negligible drizzle.
Light rain made a comeback on Saturday morning, and a yellow alert is out for Thane, Raigad, and Palghar districts thanks to changing weather patterns bringing in extra moisture.
