Chennai and Northern Districts to Experience Wet Spells and Thunderstorms for the Next Week!
Northern districts, including Chennai, are expected to experience continued wet spells and thunderstorms for the next week, according to the Regional Meteorological Centre (RMC), Chennai. P Senthamarai Kannan, director of the Area Cyclone Warning Centre, noted that rainfall and thunderstorm activity are being driven by a cyclonic circulation over coastal Andhra Pradesh and increased moisture levels. While rain will persist, it is anticipated to diminish gradually from mid-month.
Daytime temperatures in Chennai and its suburbs are forecasted to drop slightly, with highs of around 33°C and 34°C, respectively, over the next two days. Extended predictions suggest near-normal to above-normal rainfall for northern districts, while other regions of Tamil Nadu may see below-average rainfall.
Fishermen are advised to avoid venturing into the Gulf of Mannar, the south Tamil Nadu coast, and the adjoining Comorin area until September 8 due to expected squally weather and wind speeds of 35-45 kmph, gusting up to 55 kmph.
