Tidal conditions on July 6 show a high tide near 7:18 PM at about 3.33 meters and an ebb at 1:59 PM at 2.55 meters, which may influence drainage and lead to potential waterlogging problems. The intensity of rainfall could increase as the monsoon system continues to be active.

Residents, particularly in low-lying regions, are advised to get ready for possible waterlogging, have necessary items prepared, and remain informed about the latest updates on rail and road conditions. The IMD has released a yellow alert for Mumbai on July 6, forecasting moderate rainfall and potential thunderstorms, while Thane is under an orange alert, suggesting the possibility of more intense localized showers.
