Countdown to NEM starts!

The Arrival of North East Monsoon (NEM) which is the lifeline for TN is being watched with utmost interest. SWM has extended its withdrawal in most parts of North and Central India and so the action shifts to the Southern states. Couple of disturbances on either side of the peninsula is keeping the state of TN active with heavy rainfall over interiors in particular. An Upper Air Circulation (UAC) over SE Arabian Sea and another one near Andaman sea are under watch as few models are developing these into 2 marginal Low Pressure Systems in the coming days. East-West shear zone in low to mid Troposphere runs roughly along North TN latitude.
