The US National Centre for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) saw more rain being generated over Sri Lanka and along the Tamil Nadu coast between November 19 to 26, the Hindu Business website reported. According to the report the entire southeast and southwest Bay of Bengal and adjoining East Indian Ocean, a `hotspot' for quite sometime now, will continue to set up weather for the southern peninsula during this phase. The realised rains are expected to be normal over Tamil Nadu but in excess over the west coast, especially around coastal Karnataka, according to the NCEP outlook. The following week (November 27 to December 5) is forecast to see a fresh wave of rains approach the Tamil Nadu coast from the east and the southeast. The European Centre for Medium-Term Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) too, agrees and picked successive cyclonic circulations patrolling the southeast and adjoining southwest Bay of Bengal from Sunday to Tuesday. A broad area of lower pressure may get thrown up covering the south Andaman Sea and adjoining southeast Bay of Bengal around midweek next week. This should trigger a conventional `low' in the region the next day or the day after. This could well be the causative feature of the rains that the NCEP sees falling over India's southeast coast and adjoining Sri Lanka during the next week and possibly into early December, Hindu Business website reported. |
