Raining in Mumbai!

[Shripad]

^^ you call that bad thing? oh well we used to enjoy it during college days. there were many occasions when we were even stranded in college overnight.

And heavy rain is good excuse to sit on my living room after taking rain holiday sipping hot cup of tea and some onion bhajji.

Ohh..i love it too...hyeah:..but it'd better be a weekend to enjoy it..cos like i said, its all good as long as u stay at home n there's no powercuts.. The moment u wander out in knee deep waters, rain is a real pain..

I had a traumatic experience during the floods 2 years ago.So ****in disgusting, plus I dont wanna use my car duing the rains...traffic at Bandra is a b**ch...

lol i am not in college anymore
I am same age as u
but over last 2 years, there have been times when i had to go through deep waters to reach the work place, i still dont mind it as living in mumbai, i am doing it since childhood and love it
Its just life, u gotta go through it if you are living in country totally dependent on these monsoon rains. And that too in region like mumbai.
Rather than doing kit kit that bah that sucks, just let go and enjoy the rains. Its coming down, like it or not. so its better to learn to like it. buy few extra pair of cloths, towels.
even if power goes down ( god forbid it does not, not becoz of A/C but i dont want downtime for my crunching pcs this time ) its still not hot in rainy season.

Even i was stuck in 26/7 rains for over 24 hours outside. I walked through chest high water from Holy spirit hospital ( where i was doing my internship ) to goregaon flyover and spent entire night on flyover there.
These things happen once in a while, thats no reason to hate rain, thats the reason to kick your MLA's and MP's @$$

Yeah, its back to being bright and sunny right now. My sources say there's chance of a drizzle tomorrow, but I wouldn't be so sure of that...

LOL!! Who?? God and the weatherman?? :rofl:

actually it rained like 8 days ago although it was just a drizzle lasted for few moments , today's morning rain was really awesome time 4:30am

dont know how i missed this thread earlier :S

@floccy hey me 2 had a terrible experience man and i was in the worst flood affected area at tht time in "Kalina" where the water level had reached 15 feet we (some 200 people stranded) were trapped from both the ends (couldnt go forward cause of the water level and couldnt go via back route since all the manholes were opened i dont think there could be ne other horrible experience than tht i spent the evening,night and quater of next day morning in a auto rickshaw :lol: but i have pushed tht experience at the back of mind and welcoming this years rain indeed its very hot...

Indeed, those are words of wisdom..hyeah: N yeah, we hav to agree on this, Love it or hate it, neways, we all have to face it...:hap5:

I just hope ppl in low lying areas take care of themselves...n yeah watch out for open man holes b4 the drizzle begins...:lol: Mark them well, or else, b4 u know, u'll be in arabian sea..:lol:

in rains, always follow someone else lol.
Manholes are easy to spot when dude in front of you falls in. Make good use of public traffic in such conditions. You always find someone going in the direction u r going.
