Pune experienced a significant rise in its minimum temperature on Friday, January 2, reaching 13.5 degrees Celsius after nearly two months of cold weather. This marks a nearly three-degree increase within 24 hours and is 2.2 degrees Celsius above the seasonal average. Meteorologists attribute this change to several active weather systems across India, including a western disturbance over North India and other circulations affecting wind patterns, which have disrupted the flow of cold northerly winds into the region.
