Meanwhile, day maximums have also registered a drop and are settling below normal. On Monday, Mumbai witnessed maximum temperature of 27.9°C, three degrees below normal as compared to normal average of 31.2°C.

The reason behind the variation in temperatures can be attributed to the continuous flow of cool northerly winds across Rajasthan, Gujarat and Konkan & Goa region. In wake of this, there has been a significant drop in the temperatures all across these states.
