Mumbai, February 3 While parts of north India continued to experience the cold wave, a few showers greeted South Mumbaiites on Sunday morning.

C V V Bhadram, weather chief at the Indian Meteorological Department (western region), confirmed the showers and said: “There was an upper air trough on the lower level of atmosphere due to which parts of the sky were indeed cloudy. Some rain was experienced at parts of the city, but the amount was so negligible that it could not be measured by the Indian Meteorogical Department in the western region or the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation. We therefore do not know in which parts these showers were felt.” In meteorological terms, a trough represents a depression of relatively low pressure. “The trough was passing through central Maharashtra and Konkan region. This type of cloudy climate may prevail till tomorrow, and there are slight chances of rain tomorrow as well, but again they won't be of any significant nature or significant amount,” Bhadram said.
