Maharashtra has three main seasons — Summer, Monsoon, and Winter (milder summer). The best time to visit Maharashtra is during the winter months between November and February.
Humidity is less during winter, when the climate is mild and pleasant; the minimum temperature is 17 degrees centigrade and the maximum is 30-31 degrees.
Summer is from March to May with highs in the low to mid 30s (roughly 80-90°F). It is hot and humid during this time.
June to September is the monsoon season when the city is lashed with heavy rains. The city gets flooded two or three times and normal life gets disrupted during this season. The climate is humid pretty much throughout the year because the city rests on the coast.
