Mumbai on Monday morning woke-up to overcast skies with slight drizzle.
Reportedly, while the city received only intermittent rainfall over the past few days, there has been a slight decline in temperatures according to the weekly forecast.
However, as per India Meteorological Department (IMD) there is no issuance of rain alert for Mumbai. Calm weather will prevail with occasional showers. But, a heavy rain alert was issued for September 3 and 4.
As of now, the city and suburbs are experiencing light spells of rain amidst the day, with some areas receiving moderate showers. But, prolonged dry spells have led to a noticeable dip in daytime temperatures. On Sunday, Santacruz recorded a minimum temperature of 26 degrees Celsius and a maximum of 29 degrees Celsius. Compared to Saturday’s 24/30°C reading, this marked a rise in the minimum but a slight fall in the maximum temperature.

Regardless the slight cooling, residents continue to experience muggy conditions, as humidity levels remain high. On Sunday, relative humidity was recorded at 85 percent, adding to the discomfort.
According to the latest IMD forecast, mixed weather conditions are expected across Maharashtra on September 1, 2025. While several regions are likely to receive scattered rainfall, other areas may experience warm and humid weather. In the Konkan belt, particularly in Raigad and Ratnagiri, light to moderate showers have been predicted.
