Panaji:The monsoon is likely to reach Maharashtra and Goa in the next two days, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said on Monday, with a private weather forecasting agency predicting sustained heavy rains later this week.
Rains over the western coast, especially in Mumbai, are likely to peak between 8 June and 10 June, private agency Skymet said.
However, the government said that as monsoon is strengthening, increased rains were expected from 7 June in Kerala, coastal Karnataka, Konkan belt and Goa. It also warned of “possible flooding” from 10 June onwards in these areas.
