Some locals found themselves carrying umbrellas for a rainstorm that occurred only in cyberspace, while others cooked in their winter attire, victims of a snow prediction that must have confused Mumbai with Shimla. Meanwhile, a niche group of meteorology enthusiasts, hitherto too shy to profess their passion, have suddenly found fame as weather prophets in neighborhoods starved for accuracy.
