Several areas in Tamil Nadu have received good rains in the last 24 hours. Heavy rains have been observed over Chennai as well. In fact, the city recorded a whopping 43.3 mm of rainfall between 8:30 am on Friday to 8:30 am Saturday.
Other areas in Tamil Nadu to have received good rains include Thiruchchirapalli at 8 mm, and Cuddalore 3 mm. These rains can be attributed to the cyclonic circulation which is currently marked over the Odisha Coast adjoining west-central Bay of Bengal.
