Pune: Partly cloudy weather till April 17 will give Puneites little relief from the heat as the temperature which was touching 40 degrees Celsius since April 6 will come down by one or two degrees Celsius.
“Partly cloudy skies will remain due to the westerly winds over Tamil Nadu and Kerala. The condition is also due to cyclonic circulation that is bringing Southerly winds with a little bit of moisture incursion,” said Anupam Kashyapi, head of the weather forecasting department at IMD Pune.
“There will be clear skies, but from time to time partly conditions will prevail, bringing a minor reduction in temperature by one or two degrees Celsius,” added Kashyapi.
Last week the temperature crossed 40 degrees Celsius. On Wednesday Shivajinagar reported a day temperature of 38.1 degrees Celsius. Pashan, Lohegaon and Lavale also reported temperatures around 38 degrees Celsius.
“The cloudy weather condition will be at peak on Wednesday and Thursday and later it will continue till April 17, so we can say that there will be partial relief from the heat,” added Kashyapi.
