How often does it rain in Mumbai?
Mumbai records around 2266mm of rain a year, spread across about 131 days — roughly 36% of all days, or 11 days in an average month. In practice that makes rain a regular feature of running in Mumbai rather than an exception — close to one day in two. A decent waterproof and a peaked cap earn their place in the kit bag year-round.
The wettest month is July, averaging 783mm across about 31 rainy days. The driest is April, with 0mm over roughly 0 days. Even in January, average lows stay around 18.7°C, so cold is rarely the limiting factor here. At the other end, April averages 32.9°C highs — hot enough that early morning and evening are the sensible windows, and hydration matters more than waterproofing.
Those are ten-year averages, not a forecast. What actually matters on the day is the next twelve hours — which is what the live verdict and hourly strip at the top of this page are for.
