According to the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), temperatures in the city are set to climb sharply over the next few days. The mercury is expected to cross the 40°C mark for the first time this season by Sunday or Monday.

The coming week is likely to be particularly intense, with a steady rise in daytime temperatures. The maximum temperature, which is currently hovering around 35°C, is forecast to increase significantly, making afternoons much hotter.

At the same time, nights will also become warmer. The minimum temperature, recorded at 18.6°C on April 10, is expected to rise to around 23°C, reducing overnight relief and adding to overall discomfort.

There is also no rainfall expected in Pune until at least April 17, which means dry conditions will persist. With both day and night temperatures rising, residents are likely to experience sustained heat throughout the week.
