Chennai Weather: After several days of frequent rainfall, the city is expected to receive light to moderate showers again on Wednesday (December 10), according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD). The minimum temperature is likely to remain around 24 degrees Celsius, similar to Tuesday’s reading.

Although the Northeast Monsoon has weakened slightly, many parts of Tamil Nadu have begun experiencing dry conditions. Cooler mornings, mist and lower temperatures have also been reported due to cold easterly winds.

Chennai Weather: Cyclonic Circulation May Trigger More Showers

Weather officials said a cyclonic circulation over the northwest Bay of Bengal is creating fresh support for rain formation. Shifts in easterly wind patterns are also aiding cloud build-up. The IMD forecasts light to moderate rain at isolated locations across Tamil Nadu until December 14.
