IMD Forecasts Rain Across Parts of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued forecasts indicating that moderate rainfall is likely in parts of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry, particularly in the Chennai region, due to the presence of a low-pressure system extending from Telangana to the Mannar Gulf. The weather pattern is expected to bring intermittent rainfall over the next few days, with light to moderate showers anticipated in several districts. According to the IMD, the low-pressure system is expected to influence the weather in Tamil Nadu and Puducherry, leading to scattered showers and cloudy conditions. The forecast suggests that light to moderate rainfall may occur in parts of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry by Friday, with the possibility of light rain in specific areas. The low-pressure system is likely to cause prolonged cloud cover and localized rainfall, particularly in coastal and inland regions. The IMD has warned that while the upcoming rainfall may provide temporary relief from the recent heatwave, temperatures are expected to rise by up to 3 degrees Celsius in the coming days. This indicates that the heatwave is likely to persist in most parts of the state despite the rainfall. The department has advised the public to remain cautious about sudden weather changes, including the possibility of light rain accompanied by brisk winds in certain areas. Recent rainfall has led to a noticeable drop in temperatures in several parts of Tamil Nadu, but some regions continue to experience extreme heat. For instance, Irodi recorded the highest temperature at 40 degrees Celsius, while Karur Pamarthi reached 39.4 degrees Celsius. Vellore and Tirupattur also saw temperatures around 38.3 degrees Celsius, highlighting the ongoing heatwave in inland areas.#chennai #india_meteorological_department #tamil_nadu #puducherry #mannar_gulf
