Weathering Heights!!

Chennai is truly changing nowadays.....It is playing host to one of the worst climatic fluctuations.



Here is a description:



Sunday Sep 25,2005 : 6.30 AM. It is raining cats and dogs....



8:00 AM : It stops raining...The sun comes out...



10:00 AM : It is just 35 C but just walking about drenches you in sweat



1 PM : The heat is unbearable while I come to know that it is raining in Anna Nagar...



Well I guess that elucidates my point. I was travelling in a cab from my house to shollinganallur. It was hot and humid till adyar. When I cross Perungudi there is a temporary relief from the sun but the Sun surfaces at Thoraipakkam.



Worst of all my friends and I freaked out to witness a phenomenon called 22 degree halo at Marina Beach on Saturday Sep 24. At about 9 PM the full moon was surrounded by a exactly circular patch of clouds. We wondered whether a tsunami was due but the next day's Hindu article revealed that it was called a 22 degree halo..and blah blah...



Heres a pic of the same..




Anyways Chennai's weather is becoming inconsistent...nor is the meterological department too sure about its reports..
