2041-2060 compared with 1991-2020, moderate emissions
By the 2050s, Pune is projected to have a climate no large city has today. The nearest, Kano (Nigeria), is far from it.
Such a climate exists today, though not in any large city. India: the place on the map
+1.3°C
Mean temperature over the year
+1.2°C
Highest in the warmest month
+1.8°C
Lowest in the coldest month
+14%
Precipitation over the year
Under high emissions, no large city has such a climate today; the nearest is Kano (Nigeria).
How close the match is: 5.0 σ to the climate of Kano today, where under 2 is close and over 4 is no match (Mahony et al. 2017). 3 of 3 climate model runs name the same city. Seasonal temperature and rain are compared, not extremes, city heat or the sea.

Hazards at Pune
Read at the city's centre and compared with the Atlas's 630 large cities. Moderate emissions is the IPCC's scenario SSP2-4.5.
| Hazard | Pune | Among large cities | In India |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hot days in 2025, over 35 °C | 43 days | Among large cities: above 79% | In India: 38 of 50 |
| Tropical nights in 2025, over 20 °C | 228 days | Among large cities: above 79% | In India: 29 of 50 |
| Hottest day of 2025 | 38.7°C | Among large cities: above 69% | In India: 40 of 50 |
| Warming by 2050, moderate emissions | +1.3°C | Among large cities: above 8% | In India: 28 of 50 |
| Days with 20 mm of rain or more in 2025 | 23 days | Among large cities: above 90% | In India: 10 of 50 |
| River flood depth, 100-year event | Dry at the city centre point | ||
| Coastal flood depth, 100-year event | Dry at the city centre point | ||
| Water stress | Extremely High (>80%) | Among large cities: above 70% | In India: 1 of 50 |
| Drought risk | Extremely High | Among large cities: above 95% | In India: 1 of 49 |
| Earthquake shaking, once in 475 years | 0.97 m/s² | Among large cities: above 62% | In India: 10 of 50 |
| Land burned in an average year | 0% | ||
| Cyclone wind, once in 100 years | 35.19 m/s |
Flood depth is read in a single 1 km cell at the city's centre, in today's climate. Other parts of the city can still flood. The country page names the deepest point near a coastal city in 2080, so its figure can be higher. See how deep a river flood reaches around Pune on the live map
