The depression over Madhya Maharashtra has shifted east-northeastwards at a speed of 20 kilometers per hour in the last six hours, according to the IMD.
Movement of the Depression:
The weather agency reported, “The Depression over Madhya Maharashtra moved nearly east-northeastwards with a speed of 20 kmph during the past 6 hours and lay centered at 23:30 hrs IST of yesterday, the 24th May 2025, over Madhya Maharashtra.” The IMD further forecasts the depression’s east-northeastward movement across Madhya Maharashtra, Marathwada, and the Northern interior Karnataka.

Traffic Situation in Thane District:
Following the heavy rainfall, a significant traffic jam was reported on the Bhiwandi-Wada road in Maharashtra’s Thane district on Thursday. The downpour resulted in the formation of large potholes, significantly slowing down traffic flow. The situation was exacerbated by ongoing construction work, causing commuters to be stranded for 7 to 8 kilometers for over four hours. As per the IMD forecast, heavy to very heavy rainfall is expected to persist in various parts of the west coast, including Konkan, Goa, Karnataka, and Kerala, over the next few days.
