Meteorologists say a low-pressure area forming over the Bay of Bengal will bring intermittent rain to Chennai over the next five days.
The Indian Meteorological Department has identified a low‑pressure system developing over the Bay of Bengal that is expected to influence Chennai's weather in the coming days. Forecast models show the system will generate moderate to heavy showers, with rain likely on most days of the five‑day outlook. Residents are being advised to keep umbrellas handy and limit outdoor activities during periods of heavier rainfall. While no severe weather warnings have been issued, the department urges the public to stay updated through official bulletins. The pattern aligns with the typical pre‑monsoon activity that the region experiences each year.
