Tamil Nadu Forecasted to Receive Rainfall and Thunderstorms Until Mid-August
Tamil Nadu is expected to experience scattered to widespread rainfall, including thunderstorms and gusty winds, until August 17-18. The Regional Meteorological Centre forecasts heavy rain in parts of the Nilgiris and Theni districts, with moderate showers in northern and interior districts such as Chennai, Madurai, and Villupuram. A low-pressure area over the Bay of Bengal may indirectly sustain this wet spell. Residents are advised to take precautions during thunderstorms and lightning events.
