  5. I dont think that we would be receiving further rain with this system. Rains will slowly reduce from today morning onwards.

  6. THE AREA OF CONVECTION PREVIOUSLY LOCATED NEAR 3.0N 82.0E,
    IS NOW LOCATED NEAR 3.3N 81.5E

    System moving north west

    THE POTENTIAL FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SIGNIFICANT TROPICAL CYCLONE WITHIN THE NEXT 24 HOURS IS UPGRADED TO MEDIUM.

  23. Doesn’t look like the clouds will touch South Chennai or Nunga…Clouds keep pouring in but seem to be just veering around Chennai and pouring elsewhere 😦

  26. JTWC has increased the chances of cyclone Thane happenning to medium. But this will not affect us, its for Arabian Sea.

    Only way this might affect us is end our monsoon.

  45. System has now moved West – Northwest ward, currently at 4.1N 79.3 E. Is it possible that it can continue along with eastern coast in the BOB instead of moving to Arabian sea? Experts, what’s your thoughts?

  46. I somehow not able to get what is there in arabian sea that all systems are moving towards west …. North TN, AP & Orissa has remained almost dry during this NEM… This NEM is quite strange.

  48. It was unfortunate still rain belt not covered heart of chennai. Places beyond guindy battered several times. We have to get cloud from ennort and port north east of chennai so that the entire north, central and south chennai get coverd.

    kea observatory showed very poor rain rate so far from this system. Even kodambakkam area got some heavy showers in the last 30 minutes. could be 20 millimeters.

    but still lot of spells are likely before midnight.

  63. The close range radar continues to pick up red dotted lines with huge breadth which ensures intermittent spells for chennai city as well.

    but the red lines should move from port/ennore to get huge quantity of rains. Still for this season we are yet to receive about 8 to 10 centimeters of rain within one hour. of course only depressions can bring such huge rainfall. let us see.

    already it looks like a new system developing east of nagai as per latest sat. picture.

  65. @Kea – is that drainage pipe that shows water falling – does that water drop into your rain gauge (Pictures from your web cam I mean ) ?

    Reply

  68. those who see radar, please see the closed range radar which is cent percent accurate. lot of big red lines exactly 50 kms, east, north east of chennai. we can expect showers quite heavy in another 1 or 2 hours. going by the long range radar picture, we can expect showers at least till evening.

    now places near mahabalipuram, kalpakkam no rains right from morning. the rain belt now slowly shitfted towards chennai and south coastal ap.

    but any time situations can change. In my area ( Kodambakkam), at least it would have 4 centimeters of rain in the last 45 minuts. now the sky is totally clear.

    I think rains would recommence soon. we may get one or two heavy spells also. probably before this evening we might cross another 6 to 7 centimeters of rain from 8.30 AM. radar continues to be promising. what is your view.

  100. A low pressure area has formed over comorin area and neighbourhood and is well marked with association upper air cyclonic circulation extending upto mid­tropospheric levels. A trough in easterlies extends from this system to westcentral Bay of Bengal. The system is likely to move in a northwesterly direction and concentrate in to a depression over Maldives and Lakshadweep areas during next 24 hours
