Expect the weather to be mostly cloudy with light rain showers dominating the day. The temperature will range from 15°C (59°F) in the early morning to a slightly warmer 22°C (72°F) at its peak. Rainfall is forecasted to accumulate to around 2.4 mm, as afternoon thunderstorms are possible. The muggy conditions will persist with humidity at around 93%.

Residents should prepare for intermittent showers early on as visibility drops in the morning, especially around 6 AM when it may be as low as 2 km due to fog and mist.
