Mumbai is likely to experience a partly cloudy sky with the possibility of light rain or thundershowers in the city and suburbs on Sunday, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD).
The weather department has also forecast hot and humid conditions across the city. The maximum temperature is expected to reach around 34 degrees Celsius, while the minimum temperature is likely to remain near 28 degrees Celsius.
Residents can expect warm and muggy weather throughout the day, accompanied by intermittent cloud cover and the possibility of brief showers in some parts of the city.
According to IMD Mumbai's observations recorded on June 7, the Colaba observatory registered a minimum temperature of 30.0 degrees Celsius, while Santacruz recorded a minimum temperature of 29.8 degrees Celsius.
Neither observatory reported any rainfall during the previous 24-hour period.
Despite the prevailing hot and humid weather, Mumbai's air quality remained in the "Satisfactory" category on Sunday.
Data from the Central Pollution Control Board's (CPCB) SAMEER application showed the city's overall Air Quality Index (AQI) at 63, indicating that air pollution levels remain within acceptable limits for most residents.
Air quality readings across Mumbai remained largely within the good-to-satisfactory range.
Among major monitoring stations, Bandra Kurla Complex recorded an AQI of 98, while Byculla registered 77 and Chembur 74. Colaba reported an AQI of 69, Borivali and Andheri each recorded 60, while Ghatkopar registered 58.
The readings indicate that air quality conditions remained relatively stable across different parts of the city.
Neighbouring areas in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) also continued to report satisfactory air quality levels.
Thane recorded an AQI of 79, while Navi Mumbai registered an AQI of 61, both falling within the satisfactory category.
According to CPCB standards, an AQI between 51 and 100 is classified as "Satisfactory" and generally poses little or no health risk to the general population. Areas recording AQI levels below 50 are categorised as having "Good" air quality.
