Mumbai:

As the North winds started over Mumbai, we  see the immediate fall in the temperatures. 

Santacruz and Colaba measured 28.8°c on Sunday 3rd March. 

The fall registered on Sunday was 8°c from the last few days. 

Now, this turns out to be the coldest March day after 3rd  March 2012, when the station saw 27.5°c. 

However, the coldest March day was 27.3°c on 9th March 2006. The day when Mumbai saw its rarest hails. ( As per Vagaries records).

Mumbai can expect cooler weather for the next 3 days ,and nights can drop to 16°c at Santacruz.
