Mumbai rains to remain light, weather to turn humid

July 19, 2018 2:45 PM | Skymet Weather Team

Mumbai rains have reduced significantly in the past few days. These rains have reduced as the cyclonic circulation which was over South Coastal Gujarat has shifted away and it now persists over Kutch and adjoining Northeast Arabian Sea. Moreover, the off shore trough which was extending along the West Coast has also weakened.

In the last 24 hours, from 8:30 am on Wednesday, Colaba observatory of Mumbai has recorded rain to the tune of 19 mm and Santacruz 12.9 mm of Monsoon rains.

As per Skymet Weather, the average rainfall of Mumbai for the month of July is 840.7 mm. Despite, reduced intensity of rains for quite some, Mumbai has already recorded rains and has crossed 1000 mm rainfall. Thus, in the first few days of the month, Mumbai surpassed its monthly average rainfall data.

Weathermen indicate that the feeble offshore trough which is extending from South Maharashtra to Kerala Coast will continue to give light Monsoon rains with one or two moderate spells during the next few days. These showers will not be continuous but occasional in nature.

The maximum temperature would settle around 31°C with warm and humid weather conditions. Meanwhile, the minimum temperature will settle around 25°C.

It is anticipated that the intensity of Mumbai Monsoon rains will reduce further by July 21 leading to sultry weather. During that time, the temperatures will also increase by a few notches.

We do not expect heavy showers until the end of the month. After July 21, mostly dry weather with occasional showers are only anticipated for the next few days over Mumbai.
