Meteorologists attribute this rain activity to the onset of the Northeast Monsoon, which has started influencing weather patterns along the east coast of India. The system is gradually strengthening and is expected to cover all parts of south peninsular India by October 16.

In addition, coastal Tamil Nadu, including Chennai, is likely to witness a significant increase in NEM rainfall activity over the next 24–48 hours, marking the full-fledged arrival of the seasonal monsoon.
