Chennai Rains LIVE updates: According to Balachandran, South Zone Director of Chennai Meteorological Center, a low-pressure zone, approximately 390 kilometers east-southeast of Chennai, is expected to cross the coast of North Tamil Nadu-South Andhra Pradesh between Puducherry and Nellore early tomorrow morning.

Chennai: The relentless heavy rains pounding Tamil Nadu for the past few days have brought Chennai and surrounding areas to a standstill. However, residents can breathe a sigh of relief as the rain intensity has decreased, with only light showers falling in the city.

The North East Monsoon has brought widespread rain to Tamil Nadu, with Coimbatore experiencing water stagnation in many areas. The northern districts, particularly Vellore, Ranipet, Tiruvannamalai, and Villupuram, continue to receive heavy rainfall.

Chennai, which witnessed incessant rain since the day before yesterday, has started to see some respite. The rain reminded residents of the devastating December floods, prompting precautionary measures. A red alert was issued for Chennai and its surrounding districts, leading to public caution and vehicles being parked in safe locations.

According to Balachandran, South Zone Director of Chennai Meteorological Center, a low-pressure zone, approximately 390 kilometers east-southeast of Chennai, is expected to cross the coast of North Tamil Nadu-South Andhra Pradesh between Puducherry and Nellore early tomorrow morning. Wind speeds are forecasted to reach 35 kilometers per hour.

Private meteorologist Pradeep John brought welcome news, stating that steady rain will continue in Chennai, Tiruvallur, Kanchipuram, and Chengalpattu, but with reduced intensity. As the depression crosses the coast, Chennai can expect moderate to manageable rains from October 18-20.
