Low-Pressure System Over Bay of Bengal Brings Rain and Cooler Weather to Tamil Nadu

A well-marked low-pressure area over the Bay of Bengal is expected to bring relief from heat and trigger heavy rainfall in parts of Tamil Nadu until Sunday. Several districts, including coastal and southern regions, may experience moderate to heavy showers, with a yellow alert issued for Villupuram, Mayiladuthurai, Cuddalore, and Theni. Temperatures have been near normal or below average recently, with Chennai seeing mild weather due to overcast skies and light drizzles. The system also supports the advancement of the Southwest monsoon over nearby areas.
