Mumbai's October heat could touch 34degC next week

India Oct 11, 2025

Mumbai is sweating through its classic 'October heat,' with temperatures expected to climb above 34°C in the coming week thanks to easterly winds after the monsoon.
The IMD says this heat isn't going anywhere soon—even with a chance of rain next week, real relief looks unlikely.

AQI hits 152 (moderate)

Alongside the heat, Mumbai's air quality has taken a hit, with the city's AQI hitting 152 (moderate) and some areas like Deonar recording even worse numbers.
With Diwali coming up on October 20-21, firecracker pollution could make breathing tougher, especially for anyone with asthma or other respiratory issues.
