Chennai
--------------
Dry weather to continue for next few days except isolated sudden showers like today morning ones which is common during monsoon. Dry Diwali on cards not only for Chennai it will be dry in most parts of Tamil Nadu.
Today
----------
Again south TN of Nellai, Kanyakumari and parts of Thoothukudi and Ramanathpuram will get rains.
Spinning thing
----------------
Nothing major seen in weather front in the coming days. I hope many would be saddened that the strong spinning thing which was crashing into Pondy on Diwali is not seen anymore and as expected it is expected to go to Sri Lanka as a weak one.
