@ abizer. As mentioned previously. Mumbai will be cloudy from afternoon onwards with chances of shower in night into tomorrow. So this will reduce the max temp around 30-31c today & around 29c tomorrow on 13 Dec. From Sunday sky clearing up with min temp likely to drop from current around 22c to 18c from Sunday onward. Nagothane will also have same weather with slighter more chances of rain.
