Mumbai, the city of dreams, is gearing up for a wet and hazy day. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted light rain or thundershowers in the city and its outskirts, particularly in the evening and night. The city is also expected to experience hazy conditions in the morning, reducing visibility and potentially impacting outdoor activities.
Temperature-wise, Mumbai is set to experience a pleasant day with a high of 34°C and a low of 27°C. However, the air quality index (AQI) remains a concern, currently hovering around 118, categorized as ‘poor’. Residents are advised to take necessary precautions, such as wearing masks, to minimize exposure to pollutants. The IMD’s forecast indicates that the rainy spell may extend to other parts of southern India. Chennai and its neighboring regions are also expected to receive light to moderate rainfall. While the rain may bring some relief from the heat and improve air quality, it also highlights the unpredictable nature of the weather and the need for preparedness.
As the monsoon season draws to a close, it’s important to stay updated on the latest weather forecasts and take necessary precautions to stay safe and healthy. With the air quality deteriorating, it is crucial to limit outdoor activities, especially for vulnerable groups like children, the elderly, and those with respiratory ailments. While the rain may bring some respite from the heat, it’s essential to remain cautious and take necessary measures to protect oneself from the elements. By staying informed and taking proactive steps, Mumbaikars can navigate the changing weather conditions and enjoy the remaining days of the monsoon season.
