The Regional Meteorological Centre predicts moderate rainfall with gusty winds in isolated areas of Tamil Nadu’s Western Ghats districts on Tuesday and Wednesday. A weather bulletin mentions a trough from south Gujarat to north Kerala affecting peninsular India’s weather. This system is likely to bring moderate rainfall to Western Ghats districts over the next two days, accompanied by gusty winds.
The weather agency forecasts intermittent showers in the Western Ghats districts from Thursday to July 12, offering relief to hilly regions during the southwest monsoon season. While widespread rainfall is not expected, a temperature rise of up to 3 degrees Celsius is anticipated in Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, and Karaikal on Tuesday and Wednesday. Residents are advised to stay hydrated and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
In contrast, the plains of Tamil Nadu will experience increased temperatures, with Chennai expected to be partly cloudy with light rain in some areas. The city will have warm and humid conditions, and temperatures are expected to be above normal. The weather pattern shows hilly districts receiving periodic rainfall while the plains remain warm.
Weather officials recommend residents, especially in the Western Ghats region, to stay updated on local weather changes as rainfall intensity and wind conditions may vary. The Regional Meteorological Centre will continue monitoring the weather system and issue updated advisories if conditions change.
