The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation's (BMC) disaster management department has decided to add 60 automatic weather stations to the city's existing 60.
The National Centre for Coastal Research (NCCR) proposed installing 97 additional automatic weather stations to aid in the collection of local weather data, primarily rainfall.
In 37 places it was not possible to set up stations due to technical reasons, hence 60 places were settled upon.
The estimated cost of the project is ₹17.33 crore. It helps to get local weather information.
