Just see the radar picture of Chennai, we can see very intense bands off Chennai coast. The rains have already started over Mahabalipuram belt and as the cyclone nears Tamil Nadu, these bands will fall over Chennai and as day goes on we can see increase in the rainfall activity over Chennai. Just enjoy these rains, it will be steady rains and will not affect our daily life routine.
Have a great and awesome rainy day.
