Some parts of Tamil Nadu are likely to receive heavy showers, added Regional Meteorological Centre, Chennai.

The low pressure area over Bay of Bengal is likely to bring moderate to heavy rainfall to parts of Tamil Nadu and Puducherry on November 30 and December 1. S Balachandran, Deputy Director General of Meteorology, said the low pressure system was very likely to intensify into a depression on November 30 and move towards the Tamil Nadu coast. As a result, there would be widespread rain in Tamil Nadu and neighbouring Puducherry from December 1 to December 3, he said.

On Friday, several parts of Tamil Nadu received moderate to heavy showers, with highest of 23 cm recorded in Ranipet. Tirupattur, Vellore, Tiruvallur, Sivaganga and Tiruvannamalai also received more than 8 cm rainfall.
