Mumbai Experiences Post-Monsoon
As the monsoon winds withdraw from Maharashtra, the state is witnessing an increase in both maximum and minimum temperatures. Despite occasional showers, meteorologists believe the rainfall is caused by cyclonic circulation from low-pressure systems in the Arabian Sea and Bay of Bengal, and not by the monsoon.
Cyclone Dana
IMD has predicted that a cyclone named ‘Dana’ will develop over the Bay of Bengal by October 23, with its strength growing by Wednesday. Weather experts have confirmed that the cyclonic system will move towards Odisha and West Bengal, avoiding direct impact on Maharashtra.

Within the next day, it is expected that the cyclone will intensify in the east-central area of the Bay of Bengal, moving in a northwest direction and potentially affecting the coastal region of Odisha by October 24th.
Although the cyclone isn’t expected to directly impact Maharashtra, the IMD has predicted intermittent rainfall in Mumbai for the next 48 hours. Furthermore, there is a possibility of rainfall in regions like Satara, Sangli, and Pune from October 26 to 29, while Beed, Latur, and Nagpur are forecasted to have overcast skies.
