Weather models indicate a similar trend to continue until Saturday with Chennai and its suburbs remain the hottest part of the state.
Chennai-based weather blogger K Srikanth predicted that city and suburbs may remain the hottest part of Tamil Nadu for the next few days with Thursday and Friday expected to be the hottest days of this spell.
“At the cost of repeating it is essential to point out the peak summer for Chennai is always when westerlies strengthen. The hottest period is always when a strong cyclone heads to North Bay triggering WNW winds over Chennai. Cyclone Remal certainly strengthened the westerlies though it was not strong enough to trigger heatwave conditions,” Srikanth said.
