Chennai and North Tamil Nadu to Experience On-and-Off Rains Today, Delta District Sees Relief
A low-pressure area moving close to Puducherry is set to merge with the trough today, according to the latest weather updates. Radar imagery shows clouds shifting from the Cuddalore–Puducherry belt towards Chennai, bringing intermittent rainfall to the region.
Rain Forecast
Chennai (KTCC) and Ranipet: On-and-off rains expected throughout the day, with breaks in between. Heavy rainfall is currently observed in North Chennai suburbs, which will continue for the next hour before moving towards Minjur, Ponneri, and Gummidipoondi belts.
Delta Districts (Nagapattinam, Tiruvarur, Thanjavur, Cuddalore, Puducherry): Rainfall is reducing, with only isolated spells expected. Winds will shift from easterlies to southern direction.
Areas to Watch
Tiruvallur District: Heavy rainfall expected today with intermittent breaks.
Kanyakumari District: Likely to experience heavy rainfall due to pull effects from the northern low-pressure system.

Meteorologists have advised residents to thank the current low-pressure system for the one-day heavy rains, which is merging with the trough extending from the Arabian Sea.
