A low-pressure area is lying over southwest Bay of Bengal adjoining Sri Lanka off the Tamil Nadu coast. It is likely to move westwards during the next 48 hours.

A trough - a line of low pressure - in easterlies is running from the cyclonic circulation associated with this low-pressure area to the northwest Bay of Bengal. Under the influence of these systems, heavy to very heavy rainfall at isolated places is likely in Tamil Nadu.
