Mumbai has been facing a decline in air quality in recent days due to the lack of wind flow, making it difficult to disperse fog and pollutants. Fortunately, on Friday, air quality improved to a moderate level and is expected to remain that way until Sunday.
Sushma Nair, a scientist, commented, "We are currently experiencing easterly winds across the country. This is why the temperature is not expected to drop drastically. The sky is also cloudy. Over the following days, the morning temperature is likely to increase by 1 to 2 degrees Celsius. The morning temperature in Mumbai has been reported to be between 21 and 22 degrees Celsius. The cloudy sky may cause some discomfort to people."
The pre-pre-winter season is underway, with westerly disturbances and easterly winds in the country. These winds have kept the morning temperature in Mumbai at around 22 degrees Celsius, with the day temperature rising to 36 degrees Celsius. It is believed that this weather pattern will continue for the next few days.
Nair further noted, "The low wind speed prevents the dispersion of pollutants and smog during the morning. However, this is a natural part of the season. During monsoon season, heavy winds prevent air quality from deteriorating."
As of now, Mumbai's Air Quality Index is at 166, which is classified as moderate. This moderate air quality is anticipated to last until November 05. The current temperature in Mumbai is 17.4°C. All in all, the air quality in Mumbai is expected to remain at a moderate level.
