Why did Mumbai get a month's worth of rain in one week during El Niño?
Even with El Niño present, Mumbai recorded its typical July rainfall total in only seven days. Meteorologists point to global warming as the cause. Because global temperatures are increasing, the atmosphere and oceans are retaining higher levels of water vapour. When the weather turns, this stored moisture is dumped quickly, leading to heavy, concentrated downpours instead of steady, light showers.
