During the same time frame, northern parts of Tamil Nadu witnessed scattered light rain with isolated moderate showers, while southern parts of the state observed light rain at few places.
The reason behind these showers can be attributed to a cyclonic circulation which is seen over North Interior Karnataka. In addition to this, a north-south trough is seen extending North Telangana up to South Tamil Nadu.
In a span of 24 hours from 08:30 am on Saturday, Meenambakkam Observatory in Chennai observed 6 mm of rains, while Nungambakkam Observatory remained rain free.
