The trough at lower levels from Interior Karnataka to Kerala continues to persist and will shift north to Maharashtra. This trough in conjunction with the Upper Air Circulation (UAC) in the Arabian Sea will continue to give rains to Karnataka, Goa, and Interior Maharashtra and also to the coastal areas of Kerala. Nedumangad (near Trivandrum) in Kerala has recorded a very heavy rainfall of 201 mm under its influence.
On the SE side, the twin UAC’s in the mid troposphere with one end near North Tamil Nadu with the other end in North-Central Bay of Bengal lies as an elongated trough. This, in association with the trough in the lower levels will bring heavy rainfall to north Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh.
Chennai – Typical September day with very high humidity and thus high possibility of rains. Temperature will peak between 34 – 35 C.
Madurai – A cloudy and warm day with mercury ranging below normal at 34-35 C followed by rains later in the day.
Coimbatore – Will have a cloudy day with a chance of light showers. Temperature will settle between 32- 34 C.

thought came after you unnecessarily putting wow to the fractured comment
Starting today , for the next 3 days chennai will see day time highs close to 3 degrees below normal
GFS and ECMWF both got it perfectly right!! UAC embedded in right off N TN/S AP coast with early morning popups!
They are perfect every place except Chennai.
Not easy to predict weather for Chennai maddy as u know it.
Yes.. The morning popups turned out right, but for us the direction turned out to be wrong lol
Fate of chennai.. Upto yesterday wind direction was from sse
No school? Then why you studied tightly on weekends?
Bunk.. Have to study fully today as well
Leave pottutu padikura.. Super I too will use that tactic
very useful tactic. try it if u know nothing unusual is going to happen in your class that day
lol, have to use this tactic this time. They have given us only 1 day holiday for Social science exam and we have ~200 pages..
Height of studying
Jeetu,U are the Head Master Of PA Group.
You too leave?
Yes Yes…
Guys let us get on with our own work…let us wait for nature to act rather we keep predicting second on second…i do not see any use…
ALMOST all stations in AP have recorded rains !!
Again there are 2 school kids on leave today…hope tmrw bijl/deepak can takeover the turn
bijli went today after all the cupcakes?
Went to school or went to doctor he only knows 🙂
Muffin bijli
Interior KTK battered too.. Especially Bellary, Tumkur and Raichur districts

I just woke up.. Still have 13-14 hours left.. Planning to study after I get some rainfall numbers from Ktk
when is exams starting?
11th
my son has from 17th to 26th
For which son? 1 or 2
both
Ours is from 11th because they decided holidays would be from 19th to 28th in May itself.. But CBSE time table had exams in that period, so they adjusted it for our school
17th is holiday…
yes 17th exam shifted to 16th. so exams starting on 16th. 24th also holiday for Bakrid
which school? SBOA ?
psbb

He is studying geography
Sindigeri in Bellary 215 mm
Gopaladevanahalli in Tumkur 196 mm
Hadonahalli in Bangalore outskirts 160 mm
Heavy rains at Belgaum too.. Balligeri 142 mm. So widespread!

SA – 1 is starting and ending on OCT – 9
the most ultimate and happiest thing for me is that i will have vacation from 10 to 28th
so that’s The When NEM can Onset !!!!
that’s very late holidays.
18 days holiday?
yes 18 days…
Overcast condition..so no chance of TS & rain today for chennai?
not like that
Is thr anything positive abt rain for us today?

Raichur – 95 mm
Latest iod value is +0.70
will it increase further?
and is that the reason we are not getting rains?
how come 20 people will die due to lightning alone in nellore? Was there no lightning arrestors in adequate number. The governments are complete useless these days. IN TN, lighting deaths are getting reduced due to many installations of lightning arrestors.
Intense lightening in krishna district killed 7 people…All were working in fields…
Lightening shower burned nearly 10 people to death in nellore…Mostly causalities reported from villages

Heavy inflow to sunkesula……dam gates to be opened soon…..water to be released to kurnool kadapa canal..
Hope TB dam above sunkesula gets full….still its 75 percent full
Thanks to the heavy rains in bellary west kurnool raichur koppal
pls share information for any inflow into dams related to telugu ganga porject because chennai city depends on its supply as you are also aware that all our four city reservoirs has gone bone dry
Still Tungabhadra is not full….if heavy rains continue srisailam can expect inflows..presently srisailam dried up….need to see heavy rains like this for ten days to improve the situation
Basically the inflow in Krishna (Almatti dam)which gives water to Chennai.
This time elnino made entire krishna basin bone dry affecting lackhs of hectares of agricutural land
As per IMD Chennai T.N as a whole received 207.1 mm Rain fall during this SWM, which is 4% less than normal, except Tiruvallore, Thiruvannamalai, Theni, Perambalur, Erode, Kovai all other districts received less rainfall so far,
Amazing Typhoon Kilo on the right top may head towards Japan, and with JTWC’s numbered warning 70 going on..
The track attached along, with official tracking of 18 to 19 days, this one may join the list of longer travelling storms in recorded history. Though it continues to track along the southern periphery of a deep subtropical ridge, it is exhibiting a robust poleward outflow…..
Rainfall anomaly for the season till yesterday, west coast has taken a huge beating….
kolkata enjoying!!!

ss

Veeranam is nearly full. They diverted Mettur water to Veranam. No problem with the supply.
