Bengaluru Braces for Wet Week with Heavy Rains and Cleaner Air Ahead

October 19, 2025

Bengaluru started the day with a misty morning on October 18, 2025, wrapped in moderate rain and temperatures ranging between 21°C and 26.9°C. Yesterday’s air quality was moderate, scoring 55 on the AQI-IN scale, but the ongoing rains promise to clear the air nicely. Imagine the city getting a fresh breath as the precipitation sweeps away pollution! The city faces a soggy week ahead, with heavy rains forecasted from tomorrow through Wednesday. Citizens are advised to prepare for persistent damp and cool days ahead. The weather forecast shared by AQI.in, a trusted source for air and weather data, shows an 83% humidity level and gentle winds up to 14.8 km/h today. The day began with cloudy skies and a cool breeze, moving into moderate rains later with a 90% chance of precipitation by the afternoon. Air quality readings from yesterday showed AQI-IN at 55, AQI-US at 71, with PM2.5 levels at 19 µg/m³ and PM10 at 54 µg/m³. Carbon monoxide measured 484 µg/m³, which may be a concern for those with breathing issues. The rain is expected to wash away much of this pollution, making the air fresher for everyone. Experts suggest that staying indoors is the safer bet today, but if you must step out, carry your raincoats and umbrellas. Wearing masks is still a smart move in crowded spots, as some pollutants can linger despite the rain. Looking ahead, heavy rain will drench Bengaluru tomorrow, with temperatures gently dipping between 20.3°C and 25.9°C. This wet spell will continue through Tuesday and Wednesday, turning Thursday into the city's best chance for moderate rain and better outdoor weather. The weekend promises patchy showers but sticky humidity will stick around. Thanks to the rain and cooler temps, Bengaluru’s air quality has improved remarkably, one of the cleanest days seen this month. The wind will keep blowing steadily, helping spread the moisture and clear the air further. Evening temperatures will drop to a cozy 21°C with ongoing light showers and a gentle breeze after 9 PM, giving the city a perfect monsoon vibe. So, grab an umbrella, enjoy a hot cup of chai, and listen to the joyful pitter-patter of monsoon beats on your windows. Bengaluru is truly living its rainy season magic!
