Rain in Chennai for another two days

Chennaites have to plan their evenings to avoid getting drenched in heavy showers.
On Wednesday, pleasant weather prevailed, as it has over the last week or so, with Nungambakkam and Meenambakkam recording maximum temperatures of 31.4 degree Celsius and 31.3 degree Celsius, nearly three degrees lower than the average.
The continual formation of a weak, low pressure area over the head of the Bay of Bengal this month is bringing regular showers to the State’s northern districts, particularly to Chennai and its neighborhood.
Y.E.A. Raj, deputy director general of meteorology, Regional Meteorological Centre, said that when one weak, low pressure area moves inland, another forms in the head of the Bay of Bengal, which is why it has been raining regularly this month. This has resulted in showers almost regularly this month.
