Lackluster Monsoon conditions set to prevail over TN

With the exception of few isolated thunderstorms over TN, most parts of the state will continue to see weak conditions which may not aid precipitation in big numbers. Numerical weather models expect this trend to continue for most of this week until westerlies return to create convergence mechanism needed to trigger stronger activity.

Coastal areas could see quick localized rainfall especially during the evening hours. An isolated shower cannot be ruled out over North coastal TN.

City Outlook:

Chennai – A high of about 34 and a low of about 28 degrees. Isolated thunderstorms possible.

Trichy – Warm and partly cloudy with thundershowers. Highs of about 35C and low to touch 28C.

Madurai – Some clouds with a high of about 35 degrees with chances of isolated thunderstorms in the evening.
