Torrential monsoon rains lashed the Mumbai and its neighbouring areas, flooding streets, rail tracks and crippling life in the city. Mumbai rain causing severe waterlogging in some parts. The IMD has predicted heavy to very heavy rainfall till Wednesday.

The downpour — the highest of the season so far in a day — caused traffic jams as many roads and streets were flooded and people were seen wading through knee-deep water.

Vehicles on many roads were seen crawling because of the rain and low visibility, while potholes compounded the problem.
