October Heat Mumbai

October in Mumbai brings with it a unique weather phenomenon - the October Heat.

This annual occurrence sees a rise in temperatures and humidity, making the city's climate feel noticeably warmer and stickier than usual. As pollutants roam, air quality takes a nosedive. But why does this happen?

The October Heat in Mumbai is primarily attributed to the delayed withdrawal of the Southwest Monsoon and the influence of the Indian Ocean.

This convergence of factors results in increased moisture levels and higher temperatures, creating the hot and humid conditions typical of this month.

During the October Heat, this feature is particularly helpful, as it warns users about the heat's impact, enabling them to take necessary precautions.

So, next time you check your weather app, keep an eye on the "Feels Like" temperature and also the AQI to stay ahead of the October Heat in Mumbai.
