"Mumbai coldest in 46 years"- TIMES OF INDIA
-------------------
"If God lived on earth, people would break his windows."-- Jewish Proverb
-------------------
Mumbaikars said it was a chill like never before. And the Met department vouched for it by declaring that Wednesday was the coldest day in the city in the past 46 years.
The temperature at Santa Cruz dropped to 9.4 degrees celsius. Back in January 22, 1962, the mercury had dipped to 7.4 degrees.
Wednesday was also the coldest day in February ever recorded in Mumbai by the Met department. The previous coldest day was February 10, 1950, when the temperature was 10 degrees.
The intense cold in the city is being attributed to "western disturbances" that are causing northerly winds to reach the city, say weather experts.
That is what they attribute it to. I would say it is the result of climate change. Any climatologist around? We are waiting.
