More to come...

From friday evening... we are experiencing FULLY cloudy conditions with shower bursts inbetween.
Saturday full day we had drizzles. Almost non-stop.
And saturday night and thru to sunday morning we had short showers.
On Sunday morning there was a lull, but with lots of cloud formations around.
At around 12pm we had a super shower with lightning.
After that a lull then at around 9:30 PM we had another super shower this time with squally winds.

THe north-east monsoon is in full swing over tamilnadu.
The rains are widespread.

Rameshwaram (Ramanathapuram dt) recorded a heavy rainfall of 7 centimetres (till sunday 8:30 AM)
And Chennai recorded 3cm.

Going by latest satellite pic and LONG range numeric model...

More rain to come.
Lot's of moisture in south-bay.
More cloud activity can be seen.

And importantly a long range model shows a SUPER cyclone near tamilnadu or south-central bay.
2 models from 2 different website state the same thing.. take a look.
Soon we can see a swirl in BAY.

  1. If the models prediction come true u can expect a super cyclone near TN coast
    since the two cyclones of 2000 in November and December

  3. here its the link for IMD

    http://ftp.wmo.int/pages/prog/www/tcp/documents/pdf/TD1082-TCseason2000.pdf

    IMD had mentioned it as a category 4 Storm(T 5.0)

    JTWC had mentioned only a strngth of Category 1




    For JTWC report on those two storms

    Seems the predicted path of this storm will also be similar to any of those two storms

  4. To the North East of Srilanka in the south west bay seems like an intensifying ciruclation. The IMD says this will become a cyclone.But i doubt if this could become a cyclone as its closer to the Indian landmass and that may prevent the intensification.at the max it can become a deep depression.
    And regarding the post made earlier, i do not see anywhere that this could become a Category 4 storm. A storm of that magnitude would need a lot of time in the sea to gather strength.A category 4 storm would be devsatating anywayz

    Current low pressure will concentrate into a low intensity cyclone and likely to cros near chennai acording to models

    we are discusssing about a storm which is going to form about December 1 not sure wether it will affect tamil nadu. some models suggest it going to south andhra surely we will get rains from it

  7. johnny which model r u referring. i dont the path going anywhere to myanmar

    the current system is going to concentrate into a cyclone and cross near north tamilnadu around chennai so we get very heavy falls from tomorrow. this sysstem expected to regenerate into deoression in arabian sea after crossing tamilnadu


    the other big one expected to form around Dec 1st is expected to go to south andhra coast that wat the numerical models suggest

    there are links posted by Weatherman and by me kindly see the models and see for urself
