Tamil Nadu weather alert: Heavy rain forecast for Nilgiris and Coimbatore

The Meteorological Department has forecast moderate rain and strong winds across several districts in Tamil Nadu, including the Western Ghats, southern, and central regions for the upcoming weekend. This weather pattern is being driven by a cyclonic circulation located over the southeastern Arabian Sea off the Kerala coast.

Heavy rainfall is specifically predicted for the Nilgiris, Coimbatore, Dindigul, and Theni districts on Sunday, October 4. The Nilgiris and Coimbatore are expected to experience a more prolonged period of heavy rain, which could continue until October 6.

Other areas, including Madurai, Thoothukudi, Ramanathapuram, Sivaganga, Pudukkottai, Tiruchi, Ariyalur, and Perambalur, are likely to see moderate rainfall. Additionally, Salem, Erode, Namakkal, Dharmapuri, and Krishnagiri are forecasted to receive moderate showers on Sunday. Chennai is expected to experience light rain.
