This would lead to an increase in the temperatures in Chennai and its suburbs after 10th May. It is said that the system would take away the moisture in the atmosphere.
There would be light rains combined with lightning and thunderstorms in the next 48 hours in Chennai and its nearby places.Chennai would have partly cloudy skies and the maximum temperature would be 35 to 36 degrees Celsius and the minimum temp would be around 27 degrees Celsius.
Around 6th May, a cyclonic circulation would develop over southeast Bay of Bengal and a low pressure area might form under its influence over the same region on 7th of May. This was according to IMD. Around 8th of May, it would further intensify into a depression and move north towards central Bay of Bengal.
It was mentioned by Mr. Mahesh Palawat, chief meteorologist of Skymet Weather that the temp would increase by 2 to 3 degrees when the system moves northwards.
