These activities have been occurring due to the semi-permanent feature of wind discontinuity. Another feature is the trough which is persisting in proximity of all the three states of Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Karnataka.
As per Skymet Weather, the pre Monsoon activity is expected to continue for the next few days over Kerala, South Karnataka, and Interior Tamil Nadu. These activities will continue as both the system would continue to persist. Bengaluru, Thiruvananthapuram, and Kochi are likely to record rain and thundershower activity. However, Chennai rains would miss out.
