As expected on 4th awesome start along the coastal areas. South TN will get heavy rains too

November 4, 2020

With an UAC in SW Bay near Sri Lanka, we  can see the convergence along the coastal belts in mornings with sea being warmer than land.

Once day starts heating up, the easterlies will move in as the convergence shifts inland. So on a single day, you can see how the rains happen with the easterlies associated convergence.

This will be the pattern of rains for next 3-4 days till 8th November then we head for mini-break again.

Today in Coastal areas:

Tiruvallur, Chennai, Pondy, Cuddalore, Nagai, Tiruvarur, Karaikkal, Ramanathapuram, Thoothukudi will get moderate rains from the easterlies associated convergence.

Today in South Tamil Nadu:

Interior Ramanathapuram, Madurai, Interior Thoothukudi, Virudhunagar, Tirunelveli, Thenkasi, Theni, Kanyakumari will get rains

Today in West Tamil Nadu:

Dindigul, Tiruppur, Nilgiris, Coimbatore rains will continue like the past few days.

Heavy rains

Theni, Virudhungar, Thenkasi, Dindigul and Tirunelveli has chance of heavy rains in one or two places.

288 mm rainfall fell in 6 hours & was one of the Nature’s balancing act for Core Chennai City

October 30, 2020

Right from start of the year the Core Chennai City (Old City Areas) was missing all the spells and in South West Monsoon Nungambakkam ended with just 293 mm rainfall in 4 months (lowest rains in last 10 years) while Meenambakkam recorded whopping 597 mm in the same period. You can see twice the amount of rainfall had fallen other parts of Chennai while core areas had not much luck, it happened to miss all the Damal Dumeel Storms in SWM. Infact in all my posts i started to quote Nungambakkam as cursed or desert.  This all started to change from October, in North East Monsoon, the places close to sea always has the advantage than the places over inland areas.

The morning of 29th October was a special event for Chennai, the Damal Dumeels brought the memories of November 23, 2015, when dryline-wetline event happened with thunders. Not often you would have seen such thunder in your lifetime, it was very intense ones. The dry air mixed with the moist air and the collusion created so much instability which resulted in such high number of thunders.

The rainfall was split by 6.00 am cut-off time and the rainfall which fell after 6.00 am on 29th October was added into 30th October rainfall. Technically, the rains started at around 3.00 am on 29th October and fell within a space of 6 hours, Mylapore got close to 300 mm and most of which fell in a space of 3 hours. Such was the intensity of the rains, blinding ones at times. The last time a place in Chennai crossed 250 mm rainfall in 24 hours was in November 3rd, 2017, when same Myalpore (DGP Office) recorded whopping 296 mm rainfall which too fell in few hours time.

It was perfect balancing act of Nature for the Core City, indeed and the curse seems to be lifted.

More good spells are due in this 2020 Monsoon. Some spells will be always remembered by me for lifetime for pure uniqueness and my personal favorites over the last 30 years
