Rain stops across Maharashtra; dry weather likely for next 4-5 days with warm days, cool nights

The weather in Maharashtra has begun to change. With the rain over, a hint of winter is slowly being felt across the state. People are experiencing a mixed spell of strong sunshine by day and cooler nights. All eyes are on whether the cold will increase after Diwali and what the coming days will bring.

With the rain easing, the weather has turned dry in many areas. There has been no rain for the past few days, and temperatures are slowly shifting. The air has begun to feel cooler, especially in the morning and at night. The heat of the sun persists in the afternoon, so people are having to endure two kinds of weather in a single day.

According to the India Meteorological Department's forecast, the weather is likely to remain largely dry in most parts of the state for the next four to five days. No weather alert has been issued for now, so the chances of rain are low.

In the districts of Dhule, Nandurbar, Nashik and Jalgaon in North Maharashtra, temperatures are fluctuating. These areas will be relatively warm during the day, with the maximum temperature expected to be around 32 degrees Celsius. Cooler conditions may be felt at night as temperatures fall. The chances of rain here are also low for the next few days, and the weather may stay dry.

The weather is also expected to remain dry in most of western Maharashtra, including Pune. The maximum temperature here may be around 29 degrees Celsius and the minimum around 21 degrees Celsius. There is some moisture in the air, but a fall in night temperatures has begun to bring a chill. Those out in the morning and at night may feel the cold, while the sun may stay strong during the day.

Rain has also stopped in Marathwada, and the weather is dry in most places. The maximum temperature here is expected to be around 33 degrees Celsius and the minimum around 22 degrees Celsius. Warm, dry weather is likely to continue in Marathwada for the next two to three days, so it would be advisable to take necessary precautions when going out in the afternoon sun.

In most parts of Vidarbha, the rain has eased and a hint of cold is now being felt. The maximum temperature here may be around 31 degrees Celsius and the minimum around 21 degrees Celsius. According to the weather department, there is no rain alert for Vidarbha for the next four to five days and the weather is likely to remain dry. There is relief from the rain, but the heat may still be felt during the day.

How much the cold increases in the state will depend on changes in temperature in the coming days. People should therefore keep an eye on the weather department's latest forecast.
