Pune Experiences Warm Nights and Daytime Temperatures Near 40°C Amid Gradual Cooling

Pune has experienced unusually warm nights with minimum temperatures exceeding 24 degrees Celsius for consecutive days, notably in areas like Shivajinagar, Hadapsar, and Magarpatta. Daytime temperatures have reached around 40 degrees Celsius, contributing to sweltering conditions. The India Meteorological Department attributes the heat to recent anticyclonic circulation, which is weakening, allowing cooler northwesterly winds to gradually lower temperatures by 1-2 degrees Celsius in the coming days. Nearby hill stations like Mahabaleshwar remain cooler with minimums near 21 degrees Celsius.
