Mumbai, June 1: A day after the metropolis received its first pre-monsoon showers, the weather remained partly cloudy and windy on Monday, bringing slight relief from the extreme heat and humidity.

Rain and thunderstorms likely over next 48 hours

As per the local weather forecast for Mumbai city and suburbs for the next 48 hours, the skies will be partly cloudy with the possibility of thunderstorms accompanied by light to moderate rain and gusty winds towards night/early morning. The maximum and minimum temperatures will be around 34°C and 26°C, a two-degree drop from last week.

Monsoon onset remains delayed

Meanwhile, the wait for the arrival of the monsoon is still longer. The arrival of the southwest monsoon over Kerala was forecast to be on May 26; however, almost a week later, the monsoon is yet to hit the southernmost Indian state. This delay will thereby also result in a delay in the onset of the monsoon over Mumbai and Maharashtra.
