Mark my word. India will win the world cup.

Originaldashman,
Atleast u r good at predicting weather. You were awful at your cricket prediction.
Ha ha ha.. Its fun to watch kea n original dashman fight it out
No chance for the entry of clouds 4m NE SIDE unless NE MONSOON SETS IN or system forms in bay…. Actually ,it would have been scattrd so In sat image,clouds pretended to be movd in 4m NE side…TS will circulate ,when it scatters.
Kea,i knw abt ur cric predictions!!..u r the awful predictor
Kea, Hope u hav got my last comment……lol
OMG..Kea has waged a war against me all of a sudden!!! I now doubt whether he was the “DoubleDash” who troubled me and all the members!! He has started “Thooruvarifying” the archives..
I need to know who all r with me..especially those 10 people who voted yesterday..and also my new friend-allymed01 🙂
sel, r u joining my team? After ur last comment, my confidence has increased 🙂
“Kea,i knw abt ur cric predictions!!..u r the awful predictor” 😀

Nice information
Very dark over NW, N…
Mani, any sign of rains in ur area?
s.. itz raining here now.. expecting more…
ASTEROID FLYBY: Newly-discovered asteroid 2011 MD will pass only 12,000 kilometers (7,500 miles) above Earth’s surface on Monday June 27 at about 1:00 p.m. EDT (1700 UT). NASA analysts say there is no chance the space rock will strike Earth. Nevertheless, the encounter is so close that Earth’s gravity will sharply alter the asteroid’s trajectory:
At closest approach, 2011 MD will pass in broad daylight over the southern Atlantic Ocean near the coast of Antarctica. As the asteroid recedes from Earth, it will pass through the zone of geosynchronous satellites. The chances of a collision with a satellite or manmade space junk are extremely small, albeit not zero.
Judging from the brightness of the asteroid, it measures only 5 to 20 meters in diameter. According to JPL’s Near Earth Object Program office, one would expect an object of this size to come this close to Earth about every 6 years on average. For a brief time, it will be bright enough to be seen even with a medium-sized backyard telescope.
Am neutral,i wil go in my way.
Distance between Earth and the moon is 384,399 kms…
Tiny drizzle here but its pitch black.
I think,tis clouds r heading towrds pulicat mani…

i think rain clouds coming from north along with winds from west,can see in radar animation
Thatz wat im saying all day…but Sel doesn’t understands…
IMD chennai daily weather report will not be updated today due to internet problem
Devala 9 cm.
I called their office to get Chinnakallar’s data which is 76 mm
as vijay said clouds are from north now…

Huge thunderstorm Consolidated in open sea NE of chennai and east of our pulicat mani…..

Storm became monstrous in open sea…

good news for delta farmers
a lovely cold and gloomy morning in bangalore today
Yes! very beautiful morning. Cool with low clouds shooting past from the west.
same in Chennai, Temp stuck at 31.2 and its not sunny
http://www.weather.com/weather/map/interactive/INXX0012:1:IN?from=imap_refresh
snap taken at 5.30 am today. Full Southern peninsula under cloud cover.
well… Chennai did tear away from a pleasant morning to a hot-as-ever afternoon.
only NW clouds can give us more rain during south west monsoon
Central coastal TN may get rains today evening
Does that include nungambakkam?
Subdued rainfall activity would prevail mainly over Gujarat, interior Maharashtra, interior Karnataka, Andhra
Pradesh and Tamilnadu.
Fairly widespread rain/thundershowers would continue over northwest, east & northeast India and west
coast.
Will Tamil Nadu and west coast ever interchange?
Rather than that the North West Monsoon should start in April and Should end by August/ September for Tamil Nadu….
I hope some climatic change happens where in TN becomes a very chill state…
s if u exclude kerala from the west coast
Whats the point we chennaites have to suffer….
horrible afternoon.worst day this june
But..sat image shows huge cloud mass moving over central and North TN currently..
high temp coupled with moderate humidity.its hot and really sultry
@dash, there is no cloud mass and all.dont expect any rains unless we have a tstorm.but as usual we can see some storms forming over nw in radar
except chennai dist all other dists have recorded scanty rainfall.so hopefully we can expect a good ne monsoon
No runners in ODIs

It’s almost close to 4.15 pm and the temperature is 38 degrees. This can happen only in Chennai. No respite at all from the heat.
Future forecast:
8 am to 11 pm – 37 degrees
11pm – 8 am – 34 degrees
precisely the bane of chennai – its not about the statistical highs, lows or the occasional, sporadic downpour – the telling factor is for how long the temperature remains close to the max.
Fair amount of rain here in past 1 hour…
And periodical spells of mod showers continues…
does anyone know yesterdays max and today min offical data for nungambakkam.
IMD’s internet connection is down. Strange its been down for over 24 hours and its a govt organization.
cool breeze from SSE… feeling the chill
Some cloud mass have entered into s.bay
Excellent rains!!!
super rain here with strong wind…
real monsoon feel now…
wow excellent condition here.. got very cool… with heavy rains 🙂 🙂
Raining here
Sel, be ready with ur mobile..i desperately want the hail video this time 😀
lots of dark clouds around
Heavy rain here
West is very cloudy but no rain yet at Adyar
No rain….actually it was a passing shower for 5 mins..
Today TN toppers.
I have to call IMD Chennai to obtain these.
Chinnakallar 77 mm
Devala 64 mm
drizzling in mount atm
Cannot believe this. Temp is actually rising at 0.7 c/hr at almost 10 mm. It was 32 at 8 and now it is 34.4.
33 degrees at 12 AM.. Wow.. very rarely get to see or experience such temp’s.. But i do remember a day in May 2009 when the temp at 22:00 was 34.5.. and the minimum at 6:00AM was 29.5.. it was a blistering day/night..
This will probably continue until mid July with occasional breaks from thundershowers bringing down the temp’s a little…
Nettu rattiri yammaaa…thookkam pochudi yammaaa…
We can expect a spike in number of babies born in Chennai nine months from now.
🙂 rofl
Yesterday started cloudy but was one of the hottest nights with no respite from the heat all day. Today, there is no pretense of clouds – the question is not if we will cross 38 again but WHEN the temperature will fall to around 25 😛 Really horrible weather with this super extended peak summer.
25 is possible only after onset of NEM
kea – I meant minimum :))
Its not as much as about 28 or 25 but when i.e. at what time it hits that temperature or its proximity. If it touches 28 at around 6 PM, that’d be great given the present conditions that we are seeing.
yes minimum of 25 is possible only in NEM
wont be surprised if we get a heavy tstorm in coming days.humidity slightly on the higher side
13.30 hrs and its 38.3 already – the worst/ hottest phase is yet to come. The high for the month is under serious threat today.
cool breeze blowing in mount road really pleasant.its far better than yest
most forecast modelsc predicts a drastic drop in temp from sunday.so enjoy summer for another 2 or 3 days
@Jon – Do you want us to believe this forecasts? If so, won’t it be belied expectations dear friend.
Bengal rocking 🙂
Peugeot selects Tamil Nadu for RS 4,000-cr car plant
– Where are they going to get electricity from?
@guru, just wait and watch
@Jon – Sure, I will be too happy if there is a fall in the temperature in the coming days because of t-storms.
Too early to arrive at a conclusion anyways.
@kea, dont worry a new power plant is under construction in north chennai.we wont be having any power scarcity from next year
New rival to Facebook!
https://plus.google.com/
The power plant construction is 85% over… coal will be supplied from ennore port through Conveyor for the distance of about 3-4 Kms.. u can see that long conveyor belt passing overhead while travelling in train just after ennore creek…

Jon, your most trusted website says the maximum is already down to 35 and 36’s and expecting showers from Sunday.
Do I believe it? NO
A non-believer of everything!!!
Cloud mass entering SW bay and heading towards TN coast..BBC also predicts heavy showers from tomorrow
Kollur, Karnataka is the No.1 wettest spot in India this monsoon
It has got non stop rain from June 3rd from the date of onset of monsoon
From June 1st till 29th Kollur has got 211 cm
In the last 4 days it has got around 70 cm
It has is the unsung Hero of this monsoon overtaking the likes of Cherrapunji (145 cm), Agumbe (184 cm), Gaganbawada (184 cm), Bhagamandala (149 cm)
not a surprise for this time of the year.. And with Just a distance of 60kms between Agumbe and Kollur on the same green belt of high hills on the western ghats.. Kollur records about 5 – 10 % less rainfall than Agumbe on average at the end of the monsoon.. And cherrapunji has its heaviest rainfall in July.. But we could see below normal rainfall from the NE this year as all models have suggested so.
Kollur is a beautiful place with the famous Mugambikai temple.
Now it is going to to be famous for topping the rain charts.
Swm continues to fail for TN…A BRIEF statistical REPORT on tat and also the reason for the rise IN Temp for the past fewdays is published in todays dinamalar paper….imd chennai ,deputy director has given a spl report.
Monsoon wil be back to normal 4m tmrw
after a long time one positive comment comes out 🙂
I really wonder how low pressures form on land. See the IMD report for today. Low pressure forms over eastern UP and North Madhya Pradesh
Cherrapunji is showing its strength
28th June – 16 cm
29th June – 18.5 cm
30th June – 18.5 cm till 5.30 pm
Chandru ,its quite common in swm…actually,during tis monsoon,entire india as well as indian subcontinent act as a low pressure area….and tis LP area or a trough over land is the reason for the heavy rain in interiors during swm. U can see the monsoon clouds heading india from s.east ind ocean near australia…tis s bcos swm trough over india….hope u hav undrstood…tis doubt arised for me wen i studied 11th….
Thanks Selva. It clarifies.. But how during SWM a low pressure sustains for so long over the land. While during the North East Monsoon it dissipates rapidly once it crosses the South East Coast.
the dep tat formed last week has regained its strength.it has moved from rajasthan into up
Am sorry, i missed out the main reason for ur doubt and said unwantd things…..the main reason is the extreme heat from our summer,n tat make way for the LP area n so moisture clouds enters and pour over interior.
Its life depends on many factors …may be swm is strong enough to sustain the Lp in land,..even v can c tat in NEM but rare.. NEM is full of Depression n cyclones..no ordinary Lp and all….if it forms,it will boom to a major system in no time in our monsoon..
its pretty overcast outside
Low pressures are very common all over the world, In mainland america.. Low pressures and the troughs that form from these areas are the only way that interior areas get any rain… And these low pressures can last very very long.. some have lasted for over a month over mainland US and canada.. These areas are more common in the middle to upper latitudes.. since we live in the lower latitudes closer to the equator our weather is more aggressive and hence even if such areas form are quickly dissipated.. And the one’s that form over the seas either strengthen quickly or dissipate quickly as well
Sat image luks impressive…those monsoon clouds may bloom anytime…v may escape 4m tis heat in a few days..
kollur is a beautiful place.. just so right for orographic rains.. mountains immediately follow the moogambigai temple
as far as i know.. this is the highest 24hr rain i saw… chipobarod in east rajasthan 30cm 😮
as far as i know.. this is the highest 24hr rain i saw this june… chipobarod in east rajasthan 30cm 😮
a very hot day 😦
Blistering heat today. Had a tough time negotiating the traffic at 8.45 this morning with the sun beating down mercilessly. Looks like June 30 will be day when history will be rewritten.
Nothing can stop mercury from soaring in Chennai. God save this city.
Need not worry. Enjoy the summer. It could be the last day of temp crossing 36-37 for a while.
According to most weather forecasts, we might not cross even 34-35 in next week or so.
Enjoy the summer???!! When does it ever end? 😛

OUTLOOK FOR SUBSEQUENT TWO DAYS: Increase in rainfall.
Dr. S.R. RAMANAN
storms developing 100kms West of chennai… can expect some rain tonite..
Warm day in bangalore. I cannot believe it is jun 30th. But its getting cloudy now over the west. Hopefully we should get some rain.
very normal vj.. beginning of june as the monsoon moves in it gets cloudy windy. when the monsoon sets in over the whole country it gets warm for a few weeks and then somewhere in the middle of july our cloudy weather returns
Since yesterday rain has reduced in coastal karnataka….guess even that is a reason.
rain has just begun here in the North of bangalore
very light at the moment
Just hearing that HAL AP and Varthur areas had a heavy shower for 5 mins.. has reduced to sprinkles at the moment
Kollur has got 12 cm on 23.06.2011
Today it has got 6 cm
It has totally got 229 cm…..its awesome

In May, when the sun was at its peak, the temperature even went up to 41 degrees. But the sea breeze was a comforting factor. “It would set in latest by 3.30pm making nights and evenings bearable,” says YEA Raj, deputy director of metrological department, Chennai. This is perhaps the greatest advantage Chennai has over inland cities such as Delhi and Hyderabad where the temperatures remain over 35 even in the night. “During summer, there are hot dry winds that take the life out of you in no time, but in Chennai, howeverhot it gets, I can go for a walk on the beach in the evenings ,” says Nayantara Reddy, a media professional who has lived in Delhi and Chennai.
But the failure of the sea breeze has made Chennai similar to Delhi in June. In Chennai , the onset of June has made the south westerlies stronger and the sea breeze, which is cooler and picks up moisture from the ocean, much weaker.
rain begun again in bangalore
