December rain in Mumbai gets the best memes out of Mumbaikars. Here's our list
Random rains puzzle Mumbaikars again as
Mumbaikars woke up to a nice breezy chill, cloudy weather and light rains on the morning of December 1. Rains in December are unusual in a city like Mumbai, which traditionally gears up for a cool dry winter at this time. Mumbaikars are new to these random outbursts of rain and are yet to acclimitise themselves to this new trend that has been showing up for the past few months.
YEH KYA CHAL RAHA HAI?
A cyclonic circulation is forming over the Southeast Arabian Sea (that covers areas like Lakshadweep and Maldives). This circulation is bringing rains to the Konkan region, and a yellow alert was issued for Mumbai, Thane and Palghar on Wednesday as heavy rains are expected today.

HOW TWITTER REACTED
Meanwhile, Mumbaikars can’t wrap their head around this unusual rainfall trend, and have taken to Twitter to do do what they do best: share quirky memes and delightful visuals. Here is a look at some of the best we found:
