It is said that convective activity in some parts of Chennai would be bringing light rains till Saturday.
According to Mr. Puviarasan, director Area Cyclone Warning Centre, Chennai, it is clear that the interior places belonging to TN would have experienced more rains if the cyclonic circulation running over Comorin area to coastal AP across TN had remained above 1.5km. The meteorologists have mentioned that the SW monsoon might retreat in most parts of India in a week of time.
It is important to mention here that this is one of the most delayed withdraw of SW monsoon in the recent years. Prolonged SW monsoon in this year could have been due to strong Indian Ocean dipole (irregular oscillation of sea surface temperature).

This was as per the NE monsoon outlook of weather blogging site Chennaiyil Oru Mazhaikalam.
