Weather forecast: Rain likely in Chennai in next 48 hours
New Delhi, May 07: Let us have a look at the weather forecast for Bengaluru, Delhi, Chennai, Kerala and Mumbai on May 8.
Bengaluru:
This
pre-Monsoon
season,
India's
technological
hub
Bengaluru(Bangalore)
has
been
observing
more
heat
as
compared
to
other
weather
activities
like
rain.
As
per
Skymet
weather,
pre-Monsoon
activities
pick
up
pace
over
Bengaluru,
especially
during
the
second
half.
During
this
period,
the
city
observes
7
rainy
days
and
10
days
of
thunderstorm
activity.
However,
this
time
in
the
first
7
days
of
May,
Bengaluru
has
observed
only
patchy
rains.
No
good
showers
have
been
recorded
in
the
city
till
now.
But
in
the
wake
of
a
trough
extending
across
parts
of
South
Interior
Karnataka,
today
and
tomorrow,
good
rain
and
thundershower
activities
to
occur
in
Bengaluru.
Thereafter,
between
May
12
and
15,
the
spread
of
these
weather
activities
will
increase
and
rain
will
be
observed
across
the
city.
Delhi:
Pre-Monsoon
activities
have
remained
on
the
lower
side
in
Delhi-NCR.
As
per
Skymet
weather,
presently,
Delhi
is
witnessing
day
temperatures
above
normal
by
three
degrees.
A
fresh
Western
Disturbance
would
affect
Jammu
and
Kashmir
around
May
10
and
its
induced
Cyclonic
Circulation
will
be
over
Northwest
Rajasthan.
Thus,
isolated
dust
storm
activities
would
commence
over
the
Northern
plains.
During
this
time,
Delhi
might
witness
partly
cloudy
sky,
but
chances
of
dust
storm
activities
are
feeble.
However,
on
May
11,
Delhi
might
receive
one
or
two
short
spells
of
light
rain
or
mild
dust
storm
activity.
Chennai:
Cyclone
Fani
developed
over
southeast
Bay
of
Bengal
and
adjoining
equatorial
Indian
Ocean,
then
moved
towards
Tamil
Nadu
but
failed
to
give
significant
rains
over
the
state.
As
per
Skymet
weather,
light
to
moderate
rain
at
many
places
especially
over
the
interior
parts
of
Tamil
Nadu
in
the
next
48
hours.
The
intensity
of
rain
is
going
to
be
more
over
the
interior
parts
of
Tamil
Nadu.
In
fact,
Chennai
has
not
yet
received
any
rain
since
the
last
one
month
except
on
April
22
when
it
observed
traces
of
rain.
Intermittent
rain
and
thundershowers
might
occur
over
the
city
and
adjoining
areas,
today
and
tomorrow.
After
48
hours,
the
intensity
of
rains
would
weaken
as
a
trough
which
is
passing
through
Tamil
Nadu
would
become
frail.
Kerala:
Intermittent
light
to
scattered
rains
continued
in
Kerala
throughout
the
pre-
Monsoon
season
but
these
rains
were
not
enough.
As
per
Skymet
weather,
rains
to
occur
once
again
over
Kerala
for
next
few
days.
On
May
7
and
8,
ie
today
and
tomorrow,
the
intensity
would
be
light
and
scattered
in
nature.
While
on
May
9
and
10,
rains
might
decrease
and
become
isolated.
However,
between
May
11-14
another
spell
of
pre-Monsoon
rain
and
thundershowers
would
hit
the
region.
But
they
would
be
light
and
scattered
with
one
or
two
moderate
spells
on
May
11
and
12.
The
intensity
is
expected
to
increase
on
May
13
and
14
and
give
some
good
spells
during
this
period.
Mumbai:
Right
from
the
month
of
December,
until
the
month
of
April,
weather
remains
dry
for
the
city
of
Mumbai.
It
is
only
in
May,
that
too,
during
the
second
half
that
the
city
starts
to
see
rains
and
picks
up
pace
by
manifold
in
June.
As
per
Skymet
weather,
the
city
will
observe
partly
cloudy
sky
conditions
in
the
afternoon.
Strong
breeze
during
the
evening
hours
will
make
the
weather
pleasant.
Rains
will
be
seen
over
the
city
of
Mumbai
only
around
the
fag
end
of
May.
