Rain, heat and storm warnings sweep across Maharashtra – what to expect today
The latest IMD bulletin brings a mixed bag for Maharashtra: scattered thunderstorms in Mumbai, heavy rains in Nashik and Pune, lingering heat in Nagpur, plus cyclone watch over coastal Karnataka and Kerala.
Morning commuters in Mumbai should brace for a brief, but sharp, thunderstorm. IMD predicts scattered to moderate showers between 08:00 hrs and 11:00 hrs, with gusty winds that could knock down a few loosely‑anchored items. The rain may linger for a short spell, offering a welcome break from the lingering humidity.
Further inland, Nashik and Pune are under a heavier rain banner. The radar shows intermittent downpours from early afternoon onward, with accumulations likely to touch 20‑30 mm in some pockets. Residents are advised to keep an eye on water‑logged roads, especially near low‑lying areas and railway crossings.
Turning east, Nagpur and the surrounding Vidarbha region are still wrestling with a stubborn heatwave. Daytime temperatures are projected to hover around 42 °C, only a shade lower than the peaks recorded last week. Night‑time cooling will be modest, leaving a warm‑night feel that could strain vulnerable groups.
In the western coastal belt, the IMD has issued a cyclone watch for parts of Karnataka and Kerala. While the system is still gathering strength over the Arabian Sea, gusts of 40‑50 km/h are possible along the shoreline, and a few centimeters of rain could sneak inland by evening.
Ahilyanagar and Malegaon, tucked between the Deccan plateau and the Western Ghats, are likely to see a blend of conditions – occasional thunderstorms in the late afternoon and a lingering dry spell thereafter. Farmers are advised to plan irrigation accordingly.
Overall, the monsoon’s rhythm this week feels erratic: bursts of rain interspersed with lingering heat, and a nascent cyclone hovering over the southwest coast. Stay tuned to local bulletins, keep umbrellas handy, and drink plenty of water.
