According to the Regional Meteorological Centre’s 7 AM bulletin, light to moderate rain is likely at one or two places over Nilgiris and Coimbatore, with similar conditions expected in Chennai, Chengalpattu, Kanchipuram, Thiruvallur, Tiruppur, and Theni.
“Thunderstorm and lightning with light to moderate rain is likely to occur in some areas,” the IMD stated, urging residents to remain cautious due to the possibility of waterlogging and slippery roads.
