Mumbai is expected to remain hot and humid on Thursday, with isolated light rain or thundershowers, according to an updated monsoon forecast from the India Meteorological Department (IMD), as reported by NDTV. The weather outlook indicates that rainfall on Thursday is likely to be scattered rather than widespread. While some showers may occur, the IMD expects more extensive monsoon conditions to begin only later in the season. The forecast places the arrival of widespread monsoon rain in Mumbai no earlier than late June, implying a delay compared with earlier expectations. The update focuses on timing and intensity, distinguishing between short-duration, localized precipitation that can occur during pre-monsoon or early monsoon phases and the broader, sustained rainfall typically associated with full monsoon onset. Overall, residents can expect continued warm, humid conditions in the near term, with the transition to more consistent monsoon rainfall expected closer to late June.
