Chennai, October 3 (Daily Kiran) : The weather department has issued a forecast for Tamil Nadu, predicting moderate rain accompanied by strong winds in the Western Ghats and several southern and central districts over the weekend. This weather pattern is influenced by a cyclonic circulation currently situated over the southeastern Arabian Sea near the Kerala coast.
Rain is expected in various parts of Tamil Nadu due to this system, particularly in districts close to the Western Ghats. Areas such as Madurai, Thoothukudi, Ramanathapuram, and Sivagangai are likely to see moderate rainfall. Additionally, Pudukkottai, Tiruchi, Ariyalur, and Perambalur may also experience similar weather conditions, with strong winds accompanying the rain.
The forecast indicates varying amounts of rainfall across the state. Some hilly regions and areas adjacent to the Western Ghats may witness heavy downpours. The weather center has specifically predicted heavy rain on Sunday, October 4, in the Nilgiris, Coimbatore, Dindigul, and Theni districts.
These four districts are highlighted as having the highest likelihood of significant rainfall over the weekend. Moderate rain is also anticipated in Salem, Erode, Namakkal, Dharmapuri, and Krishnagiri, as the current weather system affects conditions in western Tamil Nadu and surrounding areas.
In the Nilgiris and Coimbatore, prolonged heavy rainfall is expected, potentially lasting until October 6. This duration exceeds the forecasts for other regions over the weekend. Continuous rain is likely in these two districts, with Dindigul and Theni particularly forecasted for heavy rain on Sunday.
For other districts, moderate rainfall is anticipated, with light rain expected in Chennai on Saturday evening or night. The expected rainfall in the capital will be lighter compared to the heavy rain predicted in parts of western Tamil Nadu. The latest forecast includes expectations of rain over the weekend, with heavy rainfall continuing in two western districts until Tuesday.
The weather department warns of moderate rain and strong winds in the Western Ghats and several southern and central districts throughout the weekend.
