Weekly weather forecast: Chennai dries out, Lucknow rain late

Chennai rain early, then sunny from Oct 27

Chennai starts the week wet and ends it sunny. On Saturday, October 24, a low-pressure system is nearby, so rain, occasionally stopping, is forecast, and Sunday the 25th brings the same kind of weather. Monday the 26th is forecast as rain then sunny, and Tuesday the 27th through Friday the 30th are forecast sunny.

Daytime highs stay at 31–34°C and daily lows at 25–26°C, so the sunny days late in the week are the warmest, with a high of 34°C on Thursday the 29th. Rain cover is worth having from the 24th to the 26th.

Lucknow turns wet late while Delhi stays sunny

Lucknow and Delhi are both sunny for most of the week, but Lucknow turns wet at the end while Delhi stays sunny throughout. Lucknow has sunny skies from Saturday the 24th to Wednesday the 28th, with daytime highs of 31–32°C and daily lows of 19–20°C. Thursday the 29th is forecast as sunny then rain, and Friday the 30th as rain then cloudy, with a high of only 25°C, well below the 31°C expected on the 28th.

Delhi is forecast sunny every day, with daytime highs of 31–33°C and daily lows of 17–21°C. On Tuesday the 27th, a high-pressure system expands north, and sunny weather is forecast for Delhi.

Mumbai heat lasts through Wednesday

Mumbai is forecast to see extreme heat every day from Saturday the 24th to Wednesday the 28th. Daytime highs reach 35–36°C, peaking at 36°C on Monday the 26th, while daily lows range from 25°C to 28°C and ease toward the end of that stretch.

The weather turns less intense afterward. Thursday the 29th and Friday the 30th are forecast sunny, with highs of 33°C and 32°C and lows of 25°C and 24°C. Friday the 30th is the coolest day of the week in Mumbai by both daytime high and daily low.
