Chennai’s skies are likely to open up during the first heavy spell of north-east monsoon in the state. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted heavy to very heavy rainfall over the coastal areas of Tamil Nadu, Puducherry and Karaikal on November 14.

IMD released update

The IMD said a low pressure area is likely to form over the Bay of Bengal due to an upper air cyclonic circulation over southwest Bay of Bengal and south Andaman Sea during the next 24 hours. It is likely to move west-northwestwards and concentrate into a depression over west central Bay of Bengal around November 16.

School holiday in many districts

Authorities have declared holiday in schools in Ariyalur, Thanjavur, Villupuram, Tiruvannamalai, Nagapattinam, Thiruvarur and Cuddalore districts due to incessant rains in the districts. The forecast says that at least 15 districts including Chennai may be hit by heavy rain today.
