Current forecasts from the India Meteorological Department and other models indicate a minimum temperature near 26°C in Lucknow on August 23, driven by ongoing southwest monsoon conditions that maintain high humidity and widespread cloud cover across Uttar Pradesh. These factors limit daytime solar heating while reducing nocturnal radiative cooling, keeping overnight lows elevated compared to pre-monsoon baselines. Recent extended-range outlooks show continued light to moderate rainfall with isolated thundershowers, which can further moderate temperatures depending on timing and intensity. Trader consensus around 26–27°C reflects model agreement on these dynamics, though slight divergences in predicted cloud thickness or precipitation could shift the exact minimum by 1–2°C. Updated IMD briefings and regional model runs over the next 48 hours will refine this outlook ahead of resolution.
