Will Nungambakam cross 1,700 mm for the year only for the 2nd time since 2000. With few showers expected chances are good hat we might cross today.

Raining cats and dogs in Saidapet for the past 20 minutes.
Smashing rains here.40mm from the overnite rain alone ..totaly 63mm till now..stil drizzling..
Where is “here” ? Do you have a rain gauge ?
ya digital rain gauge
Does the rain gauge take into consideration the error that Kea pointed out ? When there is heavy wind is it possible that the amount of rainfall is more ?
Please provide name of manufacturer. Thanks.
pouring rain in adambakkam
ibps bank clerk exam 2day how rain conditions gonna be in chennai dis morning ?
During heavy wind,the rain gauge misses out some amount precipitation,cos the rain almost fall horizontally
http://www.amazon.com/Maverick-TX-6700-Weather-Station/dp/B003STQV0S i have this one
I have one of these
Seems like a good model you have….wireless rain gauge…the price is $27 on amazon – Rs. 1500 – thats a great investment if you a true rain lover.
Actually i bought it for 3,000 on ebay,shipping charges + tax ,customs fee etc..
Customs fee – that is ridiculous. Its not like you are purchasing a home entertainment system. Besides this is for educational purposes…they should have waived it for you….
I hope these wil b available in India soon!
Get a wide rain gauge.

Day ending 08.30 hrs, 10 cm at my rain guage at w mambalam
Model name and price of your rain gauge salemiyer ?
Mine is rudimentary.
I use a cylindrical sambadam (i.e vessel). Place it my terrace and measure it with a scale.
Terrace is fairly open, so impact of winds will not that much.
My rain gauge at adambakkam records 78.7mm ending at 8.30am while chennai ap records 84 mm during the same period
I would trust your rain gauge more than chennai ap Joel. Yours seems hifi…
3000 cusecs of water released from chemba.flood alert over adyar river
chennai 51mm
chennai ap 84mm
bang 5mm 😀 😀
Seems like cola has been spot on with its forecast. Maybe foreca is only for nunga
Had today been a Monday would there be school considering not much rain on Chennai overnight
no..Surely they wud have declared holiday..floods everywhere!
South Chennai received more rain. Where is collector’s residence ?
Doesn’t Jaya decide?
It is district collector or collector incharge decides. Jaya won’t care about school holiday
New spell is approaching
Coimbatore remains dry in TN. Your title suits Coimbatore yesterday
@Kea,
Neither jaya nor karunanidhi decided….its in the hands of District Collector/District educaional officer…is its a widespread rain – State educational minister
omg..chennai ap 8cm again!! 😮
nunga beating meena for NEM is a far cry now….
Till yesterday for NEM
——————————-
Meena – 685mm
Tambaram – 642mm
Nunga – 639mm
Plus Meena got a 3cm lead today….
But nunga can very well beat Tambaram for NEM
poondi 14cm!!
Meena just 8cm to go to complete Normal NEM rainfall of 84cm! 🙂
radar looks good
radar looks good for rain lovers but not to many Chennai residents
@Kea – does the IMD rain gauge account for wind deviation of rainfall ?
Does their reading differs from yours for Nungambakkam ?
It is impossible to get the same reading. Sometimes even reading of 2 streets differ.
Regarding the wind, I think they have a bigger rain gauge. I think it catches more rain, but still not 100 %.
So what you are saying in effect is – actual rainfall is MORE than the most ACCURATE digital rain gauge can capture. I would estimate the difference to be close to 10 %. Is that accurate ?
If you actually compare the numbers between your web site and IMD’s their numbers are almost identical. Is your residence located near to IMD ?
Bay slowly avoiding the relation with arb sea system…now bay shld b watched 4 a fresh lp as the wet mjo wave is entering into bay waters…
I think KEA will be the winner for November rain prediction.
Now what about December ? Selvan Is there any possibility of a cyclone in December for us?
How can i win? 200 more to go in 4 days with rains ending soon
@guna..Ya.December is looking gud for us..v can xpect a system in bay… Am damn sure on tis… chance is very high ,starting 4m tmrw til dec 15…mjo luks promising,and making me more confident .

http://foreca.com/India/State_of_Tamil_Nadu/Chennai
Forecast is for minakbakkam…is it assumed that its same for nungambakkam ?
Enough for Nunga..it doesn’t need anymore..particularly for Kea’s street 😀
Suddenly, low clouds moving from South to North..
If this system goes to North bay, that will briing the end of NEM 2011
http://www.weatheronline.co.uk/cgi-bin/expertcharts?LANG=en&MENU=0000000000&CONT=swas&MODELL=gfs&MODELLTYP=1&BASE=-&VAR=prec&HH=372&ZOOM=0&ARCHIV=0&WMO=&PERIOD=

Pulicat Mani,
Stay indoors..more heavy showers coming at u..

nope..everything has crossed Chennai latitiude and heading towards Pulicat and Nellore..we may get a heavy shower tmrw early morning..

*first severe flooding..some lake is overflowing badly!
Jon, from where did u get the rainfall for pallipattu as 16 cm? Just curious to know coz, I am from that place.
http://imdchennai.gov.in/rdwr.htm
http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/industry-and-economy/agri-biz/article2665258.ece?homepage=true
Varkala 18cm,ramanathapuram 15cm!!
lol Kuzhithurai 12 cms
lol ..for they year 62cm ?
According to Cola after 29th ( end of the 4th spell) we are going to have a big break….
no need to worry. Accu says next system from 7th
Uppe Kodayar records nearly 400 mm rainfall in last 3 days
25th – 59 mm
26th – 218 mm
27th – 113 mm
Where is Praveen
Bangalore – 116 cm
Chennai – 168 cm
If i am correct..isnt Bangalore leading Chennai during SWM
he will be enjoying dry conditions there(occasional drizzle) 😀 tat 116cm is a fluke.normal is 85-90cm 😀
I m here.. 😛 and 6 out of last 7 years Bangalore has crossed 100 cm… And the weather here is awesome max 23 to 24 min 19 😀
Omg
Ennore – 176 mm upto 2.30 pm
Madhavaram – 15 mm
Nungambakkam – 7 mm
Meenambakkam – 4mm
omg!!
nunga missed by a whisker
we are not destined for these kind of rains
the driest place in imd chart is tirupattur @185mm n nxt is bengloor 215mm 😛
cuddalore @975mm tis nem alone 😮
The moment is here. Nunga going to cross 1,700 mm in next few hours
Nothing on radar to justify any rains…sky has not much clouds…sea is relatively calm…where did you justify that statement ?
Radar is looking good, its gotten dark here
Just watch out, Chennai is gonna get flooded soon
Your wish is a wonderful one…but looking at sky difficult to justify…hope you are not being sarcastic
I dont think …. it is jus getting dark… probably few spells…
Hourly rain 0.3 mm I will take those kind of floods anytime 🙂
Bring them on…
yes kea its going to be flooded mainly south chennai going to be flooded
Where is the data to justify this ? Nothing on satellite or radar…
Sudden downpour now in Nungambakkam rainrate over 50 mm/hr
All the best for 1700 mm 🙂
Can the radar actually pinpoint the actual location in Chennai or is just an approximate guess ?
20 more to go. A special night awaits Chennaittes
by my estimate if no more suprsies, we will cross 1700 before 7 pm
