As predicted by IMD (predicted heavy rains) no heavy rains in south India???

Viravanalluran said...

Yes Sir, But Chennai is at South to the point of crossing and Chennai will be experiencing WEST winds NOT east.[if every thing goes accordingly]
Now it self Chennai at 0.3km witness NWly wind and at 3.3 dead westerly.

Hi,

This is tragedy as far as TN Coast is considered.This is becoming a feature every time a low is formed moves more in to west central bay all the rains are pushed north of TN..

we have to wait for it to dissipate and wait for another low.

regards
krishna

Exactly Krishnakumar Balasu - similar point was myself as conveying - infact present rains cannot be considered as NEM - rains are entering orissa, chattisgarh and moving west into MAHA. IT seems tail end SWM has again activated. We do not see any clouds in South east bay which in case of normal NEM moves towards Sri Lanka and Tamil Nadu. But totally opposite - rains have eluded TN and Sri Lanka. Infact many theories suggesting weakening NEM in recent years - resulting in aridity of TN, Rayalseema, SE interior KAR. As you see we need to wait for November (remember 2012 - november was totally dry - after Nilam rains totally decreased over TN)

Anonymous said...

i guess the whole thing is fizzling out...mumbai may not receive much of thunder or rain as predicted...just a odd shower.... here and there...

Well if the humidity levels remain on the lower side' then i feel there will be hardly any rain in Mumbai, may be light shower.
