The city has logged a maximum temperature of over 36°C for 20 days at a stretch up to November 5, with increasing humidity, discomfort and smoggy polluted air. However, some respite is expected as meteorologists have predicted thundershowers from November 8 to November 10 in Mumbai and the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR).
The light rain activity will wash away pollutants and dust and reduce haze, improving the air quality in the city and adjoining areas. As per the India Meteorological Department (IMD) and Vagaries of Weather, a popular private weather blog, starting Tuesday, November 7, there will be increased cloudiness in Pune. Pune is also likely to witness rain/thundershowers possibly from Wednesday, November 8, to Saturday, November 11.
