Tamil Nadu Weather: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued an orange, warning of heavy to very heavy rain in six Tamil Nadu districts, including Cuddalore, Kancheepuram, Thanjavur, Tiruvarur, Nagapattinam, and Mayiladuthurai from November 25 to 28. The weather body has also put a yellow alert for Chennai during this time period. A low-pressure area over the east equatorial Indian Ocean and adjoining South Andaman Sea and Southeast Bay of Bengal is set to intensify into a depression in the next two days, bringing heavy rainfall to parts of Tamil Nadu, according to the Regional Meteorological Centre (RMC), Chennai.
The system, which has been hovering in the region for the past few days, is expected to cause significant weather changes over the coming days. As the low-pressure area strengthens and moves towards the Tamil Nadu-Sri Lanka coasts, it will bring more widespread rainfall across the state.
Chennai Weather
-While Chennai is not expected to receive intense rainfall, the city and its suburbs will experience light to moderate showers over the next two days.
-The weather will be influenced by the increased moisture levels in the sea, and there will also be a drop in temperatures. During the early morning hours, residents can expect haze, which may take the temperatures lower than usual.
-A yellow alert has been issued for districts including Chennai, Tiruvallur, Ranipet, Kancheepuram, Chengalpattu, Tiruvannamalai, Kallakurichi, Perambalur, Ariyalur, and Thanjavur for November 27 and 28. These areas will likely experience moderate rainfall and cooler weather conditions.
Tamil Nadu Weather: Warning For Fishermen
-With the system expected to intensify into a depression over the central parts of the South Bay of Bengal by November 25, fishermen have been urged not to venture into deep-sea waters. Squally weather with wind speeds of 35-45 kmph, gusting up to 55 kmph, is expected over the south Tamil Nadu coast, the Comorin area, and the Gulf of Mannar. Fishermen who have already ventured out to sea are advised to return as soon as possible to ensure their safety.
-As this weather system continues to evolve, residents in affected areas are advised to stay updated with weather alerts and take necessary precautions to stay safe during the heavy rains and gusty winds expected over the next few days.
