Temperatures in Pune may remain between 37-39°C. However, depending on the expected thunderstorms by Saturday & Sunday, there might be a slight drop.

Cooler nights around 19°C on 11th & 12th. 

Due to the formation of a LWD on lower levels and aided by easterly moisture support in the mid-levels of the atmosphere, thunderstorms are expected to develop over the interior of Maharashtra, including the ghat sections, between May 9th and 12th. 

The activity is expected to be more widespread over the weekend,on 11th/12th.

Areas like Igatpuri, Lonavala, and Mahabaleshwar in the ghats can also expect  thunderstorms towards the weekend, with an isolated possibility of hail.

Nashik, Pune, Satara, Kolhapur, and Sangli are also well-positioned for scattered thunderstorm activity.
