4 day summary

Past 4 days i was not well and away from my office.
Well, what to say about weather. It was mild and cloudy with sunshine inbetween.
On saturday there was a HEAVY thundershower from south-south-west, unfortunately it did'nt reach the central part of chennai.
There were showers on the outskirts.
Sunday, again there was some electric shower formation, but that also failed to reach fully. Only ended up with some drizzles.
Monday, Small thundercloud formations during the evening around North-east and North.
This is weird, before the south-west monsoon has fully withdrawn.
According to the weather forecast by the Met department, the south-west monsoon has started withdrawing.
We can expect our North-east monsoon to set over chennai around 15th of october.
I'm excited.
