Keeping a tab on it. The cyclone brewing in the Bay of Bengal is threatening to strike overnight. (Btw check out the exact difference between a cyclone, a hurricane and a tornado. Ah I'm sure many of you knew it, but it was always bothering me, so)
Anyway forecasts are conflicting, as expected. Some say, the storm might strike at night, do a bit of damage on Day 1 and leave us in peace for the rest of the days. Others say it is "stationary" in the Bay of Bengal and will probably make a move once the match starts.
I have the feeling that we will get *some* play. CNN forecasts thunderstorms for the first 4 days at least and weather.com forecasts a 60% chance of rain on each of these with a 40% one on the last day.
Meanwhile here is a link for the latest live weather in Chennai. Looks fine in the webcam picture. But as in other places there is a contradiction here, too. The icon in the top right says "Rain" while the actual measured rainfall over the last many hours reads 0.0.
Btw, this cyclone seems a pretty deadly one. Today, even in Pune the weather has been cloudy and threatening to rain since morning.

If we beat England in Lahore, and guys can beat Sri Lanka 1-0, then you'll get to 2nd place in the rankings! I find that very interesting, where's the 2nd test BTW?
Thanks. We'll retuen the favour some day:-)
