The Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) issued a weather warning indicating that heavy rain is expected in five districts of Tamil Nadu. In addition, the department highlighted the likelihood of strong winds in the state's hilly areas.
Authorities caution that the anticipated downpours could lead to waterlogging, especially in low‑lying zones, and may disrupt local travel and outdoor activities. Residents in the affected districts are advised to stay alert and avoid unnecessary movement during the peak of the showers.
