Although no rain alert has been issued for the city this week, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted moderate rainfall in various parts of the city and its suburbs. Skies remained partly cloudy with intermittent light to moderate rain showers.\n\nAccording to the IMD, the city and its suburbs will remain generally cloudy, with the possibility of moderate rain at several locations. However, heavy rainfall is not expected, though isolated areas might see moderate to heavy showers accompanied by gusty winds. Wind speeds are anticipated to range between 40 and 50 kmph, with gusts possibly hitting 50-60 kmph during intense rain bursts.\n\nThe day's high temperature was expected to reach around 31°C, while the minimum temperature recorded early Sunday was 29°C. Despite the rainy and windy conditions, Mumbai's air quality remained in the 'Good' category, with an overall Air Quality Index (AQI) of 31. An AQI ranging from 0 to 50 is classified as 'Good', so no harmful effects on health are expected despite the current weather conditions.\n\nHowever, Mumbai's residents are advised to exercise caution while traveling, especially during intense rain spells.
