Northeast monsoon is likely to set in over Tamil Nadu and some other southern parts of the country from October 28 following "favourable conditions," India Meteorolical Department (IMD) said today.
"Conditions are favourable for the commencement of northeast monsoon rainfall over Tamilnadu and Kerala and adjoining areas of south Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka around (October) 28," IMD said in a bulletin.
