Yesterday across most places weather in Tamil Nadu saw day time temperatures record a notch or two lower than the previous few days with only Tiruttani recording the threshold 40°C.   All the other major towns & cities of the state recorded temperatures in the region of 37 / 38 degrees thanks to the atmosphere having remnant moisture in the air and partly cloudy skies most of the times.  Numerical models indicate similar conditions to persist today as well.
