CHENNAI: As scorching heat is witnessed in various parts of Tamil Nadu with early onset of summer season, the meteorological department has predicted the likelihood of mild rainfall over isolated places in the State from February 25. But, dry weather will continue, and maximum temperature will surge by 2-3 degree Celsius than normal for the next two days.
Due to light to moderate northeastlies / easterlies / southeasterlies prevailing over the region in the lower tropospheric levels, expect light to moderate rainfall for the next few days from Tuesday in various parts of TN.
Mist or haze will also prevail over isolated places of TN including Chennai in the early morning hours for the next two days.
In the last 24 hours, there has been no large change in the maximum temperature. But it did rise by 2-degree Celsius (above-normal) at isolated pockets, and generally, near-normal over elsewhere in the subdivision. No large change in maximum temperature has been predicted, but it would slightly fall during the subsequent days due to rainfall activity. For the next 24 hours, the maximum temperature is likely to be above normal by 2-3 degrees.
In the city and suburbs, the sky would be partly cloudy with mist or haze in the morning hours for the next two days. The maximum and minimum temperatures are likely to hover around 32-33 degrees and 23- 24 degrees respectively for the next two days. There would be no rainfall in the city for the next 48 hours.
