@rame–thats got a 60km radius..if it comes straight,practically all chennai..but we need to see the direction and also whether it has the intensity to reach us
Currently it is moving in which direction ?
after approx 39 minutes of relentless assault,the first group of TS have bid goodbye to besant nagar and it is now to drizzles..the heavy weightcousins are 50kms behind and lets hope for another treat
Now arakonam getting battered..next poontha malli..then chennai city..little chance for dissipation. Note the bluish white storm..this will continue till Vee hours or morning…so overall adam will have around 60 mm+..let us see..
for all those who have tuned in,it has been 39mins of non stop smashing rains and then a 5mins drizzles and then very heavy belting down for the last 4mins
@Kea– yes,rupee,federer,TS all have been good..just to add in IBL,sindhu led awadhe warriors to the finals leading to a juicy encounter between sindhu and saina on sat
Kudos to Rajesh Sir, what a prediction, wednesday for interiors, Thursday for the coastal areas. Thanks Sir.Btw, Kea what did I say in the evening, your 5mm for sure I said. Will be 50mm moro.
IT’s the same thing actually, just showing the DBz values. SRI is derived from DBZ values,so it’s the same thing. It shows the storms intensity while SRI shows rain rates
Then we can expect more rains whole night …Right ??
But the storms aren’t moving at all, so that’s the problem. We don’t know when they’ll develop!
If Kea can be 28mm as of now-1.30am, Anna Nagar west surely 60mm by now. Have to chk my RG moro morning. First to the existence and then the measurement.
Nunga seems to have missed bulk of the rains no power for the last two hours. Padi has taken a pounding with the sound of water going into the RWH resembling a waterfall.
Cheeka, Have a look into my posts in the evening by 6pm ,i was telling Ehsan that he would surely get his 5mm and posted the same at 8pm also in the blog. He lost all hopes ..i even posted that it is for us only and only thing is that it has to cross that 50 km radius n sustain. Thank God, we got a bountiful. Will copy paste my posts in the evening about sure shot rains for our area.

RR reducing, that’s it for the night. Going to continue my sleep
Good night ehsan ji
ok! Good night! Is it only 22 mm there?
Only 22 mm in my WS, but I’m 100% sure it’s wrong. I’ll check my manual gauge after sunrise
In the excitement, did not know about the new topic, one helluva rains, best of the year so far. Easily 50mm in my RG .
OMG!!! 50 mm recorded ?!!? 😮 I’ll check my manual gauge and post the readings at around 7 am
Awesome! Where went missing for a bit?
Kea Changed title..good
Novak,
you are right, will be 50 mm for sure in Anna Nagar West. Smashing high intensity rains
Exact one hour of mayhem. 60mm may be. Super intensity. What say Pradeep? ?
Will it continue for whole night in North Chennai areas ?
58 minutes in kellys
We may add more to table…good night frnds…
Good night Senthil! Back after long time huh?
OMG! RR increasing a bit again!
Kudos to Rajesh Sir, what a prediction, wednesday for interiors, Thursday for the coastal areas. Thanks Sir.Btw, Kea what did I say in the evening, your 5mm for sure I said. Will be 50mm moro.
Shiva pls see my week predictions. ..some coincide s….
Senthil, yes, you were spot on.:)
I feel too here at adam…pj and shiva…but no rg ..so pj can help
It’s heavy again 😮
Rains picks up here again in kk nagar..
A new thunderstorm has developed closeby! RR increasing with more lightning!
Towards which direction ?
It’s not moving at all! It’s formed somewhere overhead only!
http://www.imd.gov.in/section/dwr/dynamic/doppler-sri.htm
Take a look at SRI.. Still more to come.
WHAT ABOUT THIS NOVAK ?
Storms not moving again 😀 They’ll just collapse and extend, so rr will just increase and decrease. 😀
it poured here in annanagar for the past 1 hr. Def 6cms. Still going on steady
enjoy 😀
Severe thunder!
WHAT ABOUT THIS SUSA ?
IT’s the same thing actually, just showing the DBz values. SRI is derived from DBZ values,so it’s the same thing. It shows the storms intensity while SRI shows rain rates
Then we can expect more rains whole night …Right ??
But the storms aren’t moving at all, so that’s the problem. We don’t know when they’ll develop!
rr dropping now.
IT is now raining heavier in Kolathur .It started at around 12:00 AM
Enjoy 😀

Its Kea’s readings. Lake areas in Poondi got battered.
Yeah! 😀 Superb day for Tamil Nadu!
Anna Nagar west easily 55mm for the count.
REDHILLS RF AMT APPROX ?
pj!!! what abt meena????
wow typical Sept rains!
Yeah 😀 Severe!
No power here since 12.20am. Cool breeze now coupled with sready downpour. Could not asked for a better night.
Novak, the beauty is Rajesh Sir predicted this on Sunday. Have to admire his prediction skills.
Yeah 😀 Superb predictions!
Yes! hats off to Rajesh Sir. Experience speaks. We need to learn a lot from him!!!
@Cats-Absolutely. Experience any day stands out than any computer models.
@ cat5
Meena readings @ 2.30 am only.
MADHAVARAM AWS RF AMT ?
0 mm till 12:30 AM
LOL….. It is raining for the past 1hr 3o mins in Kolathur.
How can it be 0 mm ?
Novak the next heavy spell started. Very heavy rains now. See the red spot.
slowed down very fast
Is Poonamallee ARG fixed?
yes i think so.
oh ok! Good then!
A few strong gusts now, something might be developing!
The eye of the storm is right here in our area and does not want to move. One look at the SRI images will tell the story. 🙂
WILL IT CROSS OVER ENTIRE CHENNAI ?
Kancheepuram AWS under reported 2 mm yesterday. When the rain was 24 mm in DWR
It’s been underreporting since start of July PJ!
@ SUSA , NO school Tomorrow. Still awake ?
Again picked up intensity. Wow
@rame1975
Rainfall amounts will vary for every 100 metres! Madhavaram which is around 5 km from your place will never record the same rainfall amount as yours!
Thanks SUSA ….
np 😉 It varies a lot, because from my house to Nungambakkam in 1.5 km and rainfall always varies, so it definitely will for you too!
Going to sleep now, hoping for another spell to hit when I;m asleep! Good night guys!
Have a GOOD SLEEP…..
thanks 🙂 same to you sir!
OKAY …GOOD NIGHT…
KEA RG almost touching 30 mm…till now.
If Kea can be 28mm as of now-1.30am, Anna Nagar west surely 60mm by now. Have to chk my RG moro morning. First to the existence and then the measurement.
Will RADAR images be updated every one hour or half an hour ?
Again the rain intensity is increasing.
In which area ?
Anna Nagar west. Rame.
Will it continue whole night ?
Seems likely.
Will RADAR images updated every one hour or half an hour ?
every 10 mins
THANKS PJ…..GOOD NIGHT…
Hope rain continues tomorrow also
heaviest of the year till date..
10th gear now it seems. Pounding.
Wow high intensity rains again in Anna Nagar West
awesomly heavy.. ooohooof…
Honestly the best day/night in Kea Blog for me.
GOOD NIGHT !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Has NEM arrived???? Pouring like anything.
FORECA PREDICTS RAIN TILL 5 AM ……
The real meaning of Awesome is this.
Is this Anna Nagar or Agumbe!!!
lol
Its been pouring in Anna Nagar West for last 20 mins (2nd spell) with over 100 mm/hr rains. Nunga 1.5 mm /hr. I cant believe it
Novak see ur gauge. Its going to over flow.
First ive to check whether the RG is there or not!!!
How can I leave this mayhem and sleep now. No chance. Pradeep are you there? ??
yes. awake
will this rain threaten the 156mm mark set in aug 2011
Anna Nagar would be atleast 80 mm by now. Its still pouring. The last spell added 2 mm to Kea. While in Anna Nagar it would be 30 mm
Pradeep, the eye of the storm hit us I think. It stayed longer to give a bountiful.
Kea at last 30mm.
slowed down now
Got to be tired after the hard work.
May drizzle upto 4am I think. More white n blue patches seen to the west.
Nunga seems to have missed bulk of the rains no power for the last two hours. Padi has taken a pounding with the sound of water going into the RWH resembling a waterfall.
Was wondering about you Cheeka, where were you, check your RG.Easily 70 to 80mm. What do you say?
Expect another round in 30 minutes time
After two hours and fifteen minutes its down to light drizzles.
Feels good that Ehsan and myself were the first to predict at around 10:30 that tonight could be special. What a night to get it right for a change.
Cheeka, Have a look into my posts in the evening by 6pm ,i was telling Ehsan that he would surely get his 5mm and posted the same at 8pm also in the blog. He lost all hopes ..i even posted that it is for us only and only thing is that it has to cross that 50 km radius n sustain. Thank God, we got a bountiful.
