Anupam Kashyapi, head of the weather forecasting division, IMD Pune, said, “Currently, there is no weather system active over Maharashtra. The cool northern winds have started blowing over the state and more such winds are expected in the coming days. As a result, the minimum temperature has already decreased. The maximum temperature has also started decreasing gradually. In the next 24 hours, the sky will be partly cloudy towards the afternoon or evening hours. After that, the city will experience mostly clear skies for the entire week.”

Although the moisture in the atmosphere has started reducing, the relative humidity is still on the higher side due to which one feels hotter than it actually is. The humidity will reduce once the moisture is depleted from the atmosphere and the impact of temperature will be felt less, Kashyapi said.
