It must be the craziest time for Mumbai because of the weather. When citizens began to prepare for the extended October heat, it started raining with lightning and thunderstorms. The weather has become cold because of the rain. Thanks to another cyclonic situation over the Arabian Sea – Cyclone Maha, there is another patch of low pressure areas that has led to rain in the city again. According to information provided by IMD Mumbai, the atmosphere is expected to remain cloudy for next few days along with patchy rainfall over the weekend.
When there were worries of a rainy Diwali, the city's maximum temperature started picking up. But that was just the after effect of Cyclone Kyarr weakening as it started moving southwestwards toward Oman. But the city hardly saw 2-3 warm days and the temperature started to drop again with a cloudy sky and thundershowers in different parts of the city. As explained by scientists, there are two active cyclones in the Arabian sea at the same time which has led to such a situation causing back-to-back low pressure areas leading to sea breeze causing clouds and rain.
