Maharashtra Weather Alert: Dual Crisis as Temperatures Rise, IMD Forecasts Mixed Conditions

• Maharashtra's weather is undergoing significant changes as Makar Sankranti approaches, with a decrease in cold winds and a 2-3 degree Celsius rise in minimum temperatures.
• Humidity from the Bay of Bengal is causing cloudy conditions in some parts, leading to a dual crisis of morning/evening chill and daytime heat.
• Mumbai, Thane, and Navi Mumbai will experience daytime temperatures of 30-33°C and minimums of 18-22°C, with humid, partly cloudy skies and potential light drizzles.
• Western Maharashtra, including Pune, Kolhapur, Sangli, and Satara, will see mixed weather with warm days and cooler nights; light showers are possible in ghat areas.
• Marathwada and Vidarbha (Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Nagpur, Amravati) will have cool mornings, rising to 29-33°C during the day, with mostly clear to partly cloudy skies and light morning fog.

Why It Matters: Maharashtra faces a dual weather challenge with rising temperatures, humidity, and mixed conditions across regions.
