Independent weather watcher Srikanth, who runs the well-known blog ‘Chennai Rains’ (COMK), offered additional insight stating that, "While there is no good news yet on afternoon heat for #TamilNadu a developing wind convergence may bring back #Thunderstorms over Peninsular #India gradually from today with better prospects from tomorrow. Slight chance for suburbs of #Chennai to see some rains today."
