But as the monsoon surge is not very active, therefore we do not expect difficulty in commuting. Temperatures in Mumbai and suburbs will drop by two to three degrees leading to comfortable weather conditions.
Well marked low pressure area is now over East Madhya Pradesh and a cyclonic circulation is over South Pakistan. These weather parameters have enhanced the rainfall activities over Konkan and Goa including Mumbai and suburbs.
Rain activities are expected to increase further over Mumbai and suburbs during the night and on August 29. There may be some decrease in rains activities over Mumbai and suburbs on August 30 and by August 31 and weather will start clearing up. Isolated light rain with one or two moderate spells cannot be ruled out thereafter. There may be a marginal rise in temperatures over Mumbai and suburbs post August 30.
