The Weather in Mumbai

Sadanand Kamath · Feb 9th, 2008, 09:47

After many years, Mumbai has experienced a prolonged winter this year. The so called winter in Mumbai started in early January and has been continuing so far without a break. For past few days, the temperatures have been ranging from maximum of around 27C to the minimum of around 12C. Yesterday, both maximum and minimum temperatures have dipped to 22C and 8.5C respectively. What is surprising is that the minimum temp. of 8.5C on Friday in Mumbai was lower than 9C in Delhi.

Climate change is well and truly here.

Not just Mumbai, typical signs everywhere in the world.

Colder winters, warmer summers.
Alternate droughts and floods.
More severe tropical revolving storms
Higher frequency of same storms.
Unseasonal weather.

In India, easily noticeable in the last two years.

no woolies

everytime i think of getting a fleece/jacket/pullover - my mumbaikar pals tell me - "DONT - its going to hit 30 anyday now". that anyday has been a month

- anything below 20 is monkey-cap time for me

bangalore - 30 or thereabouts - sheesh.

Yes, very significant development indeed, the world climate is being changed,summer is getting hotter and winter is getting chilled. I wonder is this change for better or ?????????

Its global warming, we are freezing to death..

ks_bluechip · Feb 10th, 2008, 06:11

Brrrrrr .... I think its maybe around 6-7*C, in the Yewoor Hills at Thane in the morning (around 6:30AM ... when we go up there for our daily morning walk-trek).

kristinm · Feb 10th, 2008, 06:26

We just left Mumbai and after freezing in Rajasthan and Delhi we loved the warm weather and cool breeze!

shahronakm · Feb 11th, 2008, 20:52

It seems the weather's getting back on track. I mean getting warmer.

Well i guess the good times are coming to a end !! its getting warmer...

snonymous · Feb 18th, 2008, 16:47

Its warm again now, although the nights are still very pleasant and we do not need the fan yet. I think most of us Bombaywallas enjoyed the "winter" while it lasted. Lets get ready to face the summer soon.
