Dry days may return to city as rain clouds recede
Chennai: Hot and dry days are likely to return after a spell of rainfall cooled the city and the suburbs over the past few days. While some parts of the city received evening showers on Thursday, weathermen said rain activity may gradually reduce in the coming days, with both day and night temperatures likely to rise, a trend that may last until the end of July. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The IMD downgraded the rain forecast for Friday from 'moderate' to 'light' for the city and suburbs. "On Friday, the city and neighbouring areas may receive one or two spells of light rainfall over some areas. The sky may be partly cloudy. Maximum temperature may be around 33°C-34°C and minimum temperature around 26°C-27°C," said an IMD bulletin. On Thursday evening, Nungambakkam and Meenambakkam recorded traces and 1.4mm rainfall after maximum temperatures touched 34.9°C and 34.8°C, about 0.3°C and 0.5°C below normal. This marked a rise from the previous days when temperatures dipped to 31°C, nearly 5°C below normal. Meteorologists said a low-pressure area, a remnant of Cyclone Wipha that hit Vietnam, formed over the north Bay of Bengal and may draw moisture away from the land. The cyclonic circulation over north coastal Andhra Pradesh, which brought rainfall to the city, may also merge with the upper air circulation linked to the low pressure. These atmospheric dynamics may lead to a steady flow of dry westerly winds over Tamil Nadu, limiting wind convergence-driven rainfall in the city and neighbouring districts. However, districts along the Western Ghats may receive heavy rain over the next two days as the southwest monsoon intensifies. "For the next week, the city may experience dry westerly winds. Rainfall may reduce, and maximum temperatures may rise by two to three degree Celsius," said Mahesh Palawat, chief meteorologist, Skymet Weather.

Monsoon lull: At 23%, city's rain deficit 4 times that of UP
Lucknow: The city continues to be in a grip of hot and humid conditions, beset by a prolonged dry spell with no rainfall in recent days. The state capital has experienced a deficit of 23% in rainfall since the onset of the monsoon season on June 1. The city's actual average rainfall is 200.7 mm, while the normal is 261.4 mm. Uttar Pradesh is facing a rainfall deficit of 5%, while Lucknow's shortfall is more than four times that of the state. According to weathermen, Lucknow has experienced a similar rainfall trend for the last 2-3 years, with a deficit recorded in June and July, followed by rainfall in the later months. "The city has not received much rainfall so far because cyclonic circulations or low-pressure circulations, which lead to rainfall, are occurring in the southern part of the city. The city will receive rain only when there is a cyclonic circulation or low pressure in the central and northern parts of the city. Since this has not happened, a rain deficit is being faced by Lucknow and the eastern part of the state," said senior scientist Danish Mohammad of the state met centre. He said there is a possibility that the city may receive rain in the next 3-4 days, as there is low pressure in the Bay of Bengal, which will eventually bring some changes in weather conditions in the eastern part of UP, including Lucknow. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Gold Is Surging in 2025 — Smart Traders Are Already In IC Markets Learn More Undo On Thursday, the city experienced cloudy conditions, but there was no rain.
