Feeble trough to bring break from dry spell in parts of Tamil Nadu; interior districts to stay sweltering
A feeble trough is expected to bring scattered rainfall to parts of Tamil Nadu, offering a brief respite from dry weather. However, interior districts like Madurai and Karur will continue to experience sweltering heat above seasonal averages.
Why it matters
Understanding regional weather patterns is critical for public health and agricultural planning in areas prone to extreme heatwaves.
A feeble trough extending along Tamil Nadu coast is likely to bring a brief break from dry weather, with scattered rainfall expected over parts of the State till July 28. Rainfall is likely to become more significant during the weekend as favourable weather conditions develop.
However, the Regional Meteorological Centre (RMC) has noted that temperature levels would continue to climb above average in isolated pockets of interior Tamil Nadu. Searing heat is likely to persist in interior parts like Madurai and Karur, despite the wet spell likely in parts of the State.
On Wednesday too, Madurai Airport topped the charts with the State’s highest maximum temperature of 41.5 degrees Celsius. It was followed by Madurai city with 40.4 degrees Celsius.
