The capital city of Tamil Nadu, Chennai has been receiving dry and warm weather conditions since the last few days. In fact, during the last 24 hours, the maximum temperatures recorded in Chennai was 31.2˚C which was almost 2 degrees above normal.

At present, a cyclonic circulation lies over parts of West central Bay of Bengal. This system is extending up to 3.1 km above sea level and moving in west-northwest direction gradually.

Now due to the approaching of above weather system, we expect light to moderate rain and thundershower activities with strong winds to commence over the city from December 3 evening.

This spell of rain and thundershower activities will intermittently be affecting over the city between December 3 and 5.

Hence, due to the current dry weather conditions, night temperatures over Chennai city will increase during the next 24 hours and will decrease thereafter, due to the approaching rains.

Maximum temperatures will remain same and experience no significant change for the next 24 hours. However, once rains commence over the city, day temperatures will start to reduce significantly.

Furthermore, after December 5, isolated patchy on and off rainfall activity is expected to continue over Chennai.
