Is NEM Waiting to show its Glory?

North East Monsoon has been disappointing for the most parts of tamilnadu so far with chennai receiving only 350 mm against an average of 850 mm. We have three systems in Bay of Bengal so far one being a low which went along the east coast with North Andhra Pradesh and Odisha taking its major share, The second one being the low which later developed into Cyclone Maha which gave a major part of Tamilnadu's NorthEast Monsoon rain quantum, and the third one being Cyclone Bulbul which fell a prey to Western disturbance.

With a dull Monsoon so far, Models expect a system forming in bay of Bengal around November End due to Mjo visiting Indian ocean. Widespread rains to Tamilnadu and adjoining Andhra Pradesh is the outlook given by models so far while the location of the system is projected to be somewhere around Srilanka and Gulf of Mannar. While ECMWF Ensembles partly hinting towards system intensification after entering Arabian Sea.

Weak Low to Form in Bay of Bengal

A weak cyclonic circulation/weather disturbance persists over south east Bay of Bengal. It is expected to track westwards towards Srilanka as a possible Low pressure area in the next 24-48 hours. And in the subsequent 24-48 hours to track further westwards into Comorin sea/Gulf of mannar and become awell marked low. The present break in rains is expected to end early next week as the low might spread some showers over entire  coastal TN.  The cyclonic storm Kyarr ( named by Myanmar ) in the East Central  Arabian sea  is expected to track West North West towards Oman/ Yemen coast in the coming days. - CYCLOMANIAC

Cyclone Bulbul Starts its Journey

The remnants of Matmo which entered bay of Bengal from South China Sea has evolved into a Cyclone "BulBul". Rapid intensification was seen in the last 24 hours and the system is expected to make Landfall around Odisha/West Bengal surroundings. Rain chances for Coastal Tamilnadu continues to be very low for the next 7-8 days. However, Rains are expected from November 15th as easterlies will be back in bay of Bengal while the traces of " BulBul" disappear.

Forecast for the upcoming days

Rains possible in KTC on New Year 2020 due to interaction of dipping strong mid level trough and incoming moist easterlies at lower levels  which will produce Thunderstorm. Rain chances are there in January first week. chennai also has chance to catch one or two spells. Courtesy : Jaswant Weatherman
