Mumbai is set to experience a rainy spell beginning Monday with heavy showers forecast to cool the city to around 24.5°C. Rainfall will remain steady on Tuesday, though slightly less intense, before tapering into scattered showers on Wednesday and Thursday.
Thursday and Friday appear to be the most favourable days for outdoor plans, but residents are advised to stay updated as rain may affect visibility and disrupt travel.
Despite the inconvenience, the ongoing downpours are expected to gradually improve air quality, which currently stands at a moderate AQI of 77, up from last week’s average of 70.
The weekend of September 19–20 is expected to bring lighter rain, offering some respite for residents, though humid conditions will persist throughout the week.
Temperatures are likely to fluctuate between 24°C and 29°C over the next several days, with consistently high humidity adding to the dampness.
Damp and cloudy days
On Sunday, the financial capital of India experienced a subdued day marked by patchy rainfall and temperatures ranging between 24.9°C and 27.5°C.
The sky remained largely overcast, with gentle winds of around 13 km/h and a 93% chance of showers, particularly towards the late afternoon. Humidity touched 81%, contributing to discomfort in daily commuting.
Pollution readings from the day showed PM2.5 at 30 µg/m³ and PM10 at 78 µg/m³, with carbon monoxide levels at 453 µg/m³ — values that can pose mild health concerns for sensitive groups.
Despite these figures, morning hours offered relatively better conditions for outdoor activities, while the afternoon was hampered by intermittent showers and reduced visibility.
