  "summary": "Pune received 17.1 mm of rain on Monday evening, marking the first time in 58 days that the city's main weather office recorded double-digit rainfall. The last instance of such rainfall was on August 1 when Shivajinagar recorded a 24-hour rainfall of 30.3 mm, which was followed by a drop to 1.5 mm the next day. This event is the second longest stretch of single-digit rain since 2014, with the longest being in 2018 when the city went 64 consecutive days without double-digit rainfall. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast similar weather for the next three days, with a yellow alert issued for thunderstorms, lightning, gusty winds, and light to moderate rain in Pune and the Ghats of Pune. The withdrawal of the monsoon is expected from Mumbai and Pune by early October and from the entire Maharashtra by the middle of October. Despite the rainfall, temperatures remained relatively stable, with maximum temperatures ranging from 33.4°C to 22.5°C.",
