Good morning friends. Even in other countrys the monsoon keeps on coming back. This has refereced to The Times of India and all of us should be aware of this climate.
The city was caught unawares when the dormant north-east monsoon revived on Monday afternoon.
Within minutes, commuters were drenched and those on foot and two-wheelers had a tough time finding shelter. “Senior citizens and children suffered a lot, especially at the bus shelters where there are hardly any seats,” said K Pattabiraman, a senior citizen. “The formation of a trough of low pressure over south western bay off the coast of Tamil Nadu resulted in the showers. Scattered rainfall over Tamil Nadu and isolated heavy rainfall is likely to occur over south TN in the next 24-hours,” said S R Ramanan, director, regional meteorological centre.
Until 8.30 pm on Monday, Nungambakkam recorded 4.7 mm of rain, while Meenabakkam registered 10.2 mm of rain. According to the met office, the forecast for Tuesday is generally cloudy weather, with one or two spells of thunder showers.
According to T N Balasubramaniam, agronomist and consultant to MSSRF, when the temperature varies between a minimum of 20 degree Celsius and a maximum of 32 degree Celsius, the weather is contiguous for rain. “The timely showers of Monday will be highly beneficial since electricity consumption will be less in the irrigated agricultural belt of Thiruvallur and Kanchipuram districts.”
The city’s important roads such as Perambur High Rd, Basin Bridge, Royapettah High Rd, stretches of Gandhi Mandapam Rd and Nandanam were flooded.
