Overview
- IMD, which on Monday forecast clear to partly cloudy skies, set Mumbai’s temperatures near a 34°C high and 27°C low with no rainfall recorded.
- Citywide air quality sat in the CPCB’s good to satisfactory bands, yet pockets diverged sharply as Bandra Kurla Complex hit an AQI of 190 and Powai logged 21.
- Across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, readings varied with Thane at 68, Navi Mumbai at 61, and Kalyan touching 100 at the top of the moderate bracket.
- Interior Maharashtra baked under extreme heat as IMD listed Parbhani at 45.2°C with several districts above 40°C, outpacing coastal areas by a wide margin.
- Evening humidity reached 74% at Colaba and 72% at Santacruz, a pre‑monsoon pattern that can heighten heat stress for outdoor workers, older adults, and people with breathing issues.
