Light to moderate rains with occasional thunderstorms are predicted for Mumbai and the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) over the next week. The arrival of sufficient rains has led to a notable drop in the city's temperature following a very hot and humid summer.

AQI Falls In Satisfactory Category

Regarding air quality, the Air Quality Index (AQI) for PM10 particles in Mumbai currently stands at 81, placing it within the 'satisfactory' category.

Moderate caution is advised for AQI levels between 100 and 200.

The improvement in air quality is attributed to the recent rains, which have helped to clear the pollutants from the air, providing some relief from the usual pollution levels experienced during the drier months.
