ameya: Mumbai will have to bear these more than 32/33c day temps till at least end of this week.
There is another low forming in the arb sea. This will deepen a bit to around 1004/106 mb. Till friday or saturday, this low will be within range of Mumbai coast to attract east winds. East winds are the reasons for the hot weather, preventing the sea breeze.
The low will move west.

It is NEM (for name sake) but low forms over AS, WD returning back with force - any feeble low over Bay will move NE. What will happen to SE India?

EL-NINO correlation with NEM seems to be baseless, if we are in EL-NINO then how come GUJ,RAJ,MP...received bounty rains during SWM. EL-NINO or no NEM currents may become legacy soon.
