Maharashtra weather alert: Yellow warning issued
Despite stable conditions in Mumbai, the IMD has issued a yellow warning for several districts across Maharashtra. Latur, Nashik, Palghar, Raigad, Ratnagiri, and Satara may experience light spells of rain and thunderstorms, accompanied by lightning and gusty winds during daytime on Friday.
The warning, issued at 7 am, said these districts could see unusual weather activity for around three hours. Gusty winds may reach speeds of 30–40 kmph along with light to moderate rain.
Heatwave continues in interior Maharashtra
While coastal regions remain relatively cooler, Vidarbha continues to be the worst-hit region, with temperatures consistently crossing 43 degrees Celsius.
Marathwada and parts of Madhya Maharashtra are also experiencing severe heat conditions.
In contrast, Mumbai and the Konkan coast are relatively cooler, with temperatures ranging between 31.5 degrees Celsius and 33.6 degrees Celsius. However, high humidity levels of 65 per cent to 80 per cent are making conditions uncomfortable for residents.
Nashik records lowest minimum temperature
Nashik recorded the lowest minimum temperature in the state at 16.3 degrees Celsius on Thursday.
This sharp contrast highlights the uneven weather patterns across the state, with Vidarbha being the worst affected by extreme dry heat, Marathwada faring slightly better than Vidarbha, and Mumbai, the Konkan region, as well as Pune, remaining comparatively cooler.
