Mumbai is expected to experience partly cloudy sky with possibility of light rain or thundershowers in city and suburbs areas on Thursday, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD).
The weather department has forecast continued hot and humid conditions across the metropolis, with temperatures remaining above seasonal comfort levels. The maximum temperature is likely to reach around 34 degrees Celsius, while the minimum temperature is expected to remain close to 29 degrees Celsius.
According to IMD Mumbai's weather observations recorded on June 11, Colaba registered a minimum temperature of 30 degrees Celsius. Santacruz recorded a minimum temperature of 30 degrees Celsius.
Despite the possibility of rain, humidity levels are expected to remain high, contributing to uncomfortable weather conditions across the city. Warm and muggy conditions are likely to prevail throughout the day, with only temporary relief from cloud cover and occasional showers.
Meteorologists have advised residents to remain prepared for sudden changes in weather, particularly during the afternoon and evening hours when thunderstorm activity is more likely to develop.
While the city continues to experience humid weather, Mumbai's air quality remained within the "Satisfactory" category on Thursday.
According to data from the Central Pollution Control Board's (CPCB) SAMEER application, the city's overall Air Quality Index (AQI) stood at 67. An AQI within this range indicates that air quality is generally acceptable and poses minimal health risks for most people.
Air quality readings across Mumbai's monitoring stations largely remained within the satisfactory range.
Bandra Kurla Complex recorded an AQI of 85, while Kandivali reported 84. Borivali registered an AQI of 54, Byculla recorded 77, and Ghatkopar reported 101. Colaba's AQI stood at 104, while Andheri recorded 43, making it one of the few locations to fall within the "Good" air quality category.
The readings indicate relatively stable air quality conditions across different parts of the city despite prevailing weather fluctuations.
Neighbouring areas in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) also reported satisfactory air quality levels.
Thane recorded an AQI of 76, while Navi Mumbai registered 64. Both locations remained within the satisfactory category, suggesting that pollution levels were under control across the wider metropolitan region.
Under CPCB guidelines, an AQI between 51 and 100 is classified as "Satisfactory", indicating minor or no health concerns for the general population. AQI values between 0 and 50 fall under the "Good" category and reflect cleaner air conditions with minimal health impacts.
