Thane sits just northeast of Mumbai and shares much of the city’s heavy southwest monsoon exposure between June and September, with the Ulhas River and several creeks running through the district. Rapid urban development around Thane’s creeks and low-lying wetland areas has increased flood risk in recent decades, making radar an important tool for anticipating fast-developing storm cells common to the wider Mumbai metropolitan region.
