Mumbai Records One of Its Mildest Winters

Mumbai has experienced an unusually comfortable winter this season, with no significant cold spells so far.

The lowest minimum temperature recorded was 15.9°C on 19 January 2026, making it the warmest winter minimum since January 2015.

In contrast, the city had seen sharper dips below 12°C in January 2017 and 2020. This month, Mumbai crossed the 20°C mark on four occasions, with today’s minimum of 22.6°C being the highest so far and 5.5°C above normal.

Daytime temperatures have mostly stayed above 30°C, touching 31.4°C recently.

The absence of cold northerly winds, due to persistent western disturbances and a displaced anticyclone, has kept conditions warm and humid. Similar weather is expected to continue through January.
