Chennaites can be happy because the reservoirs are getting water because of rainstorm. Reservoirs supplying water to the city are bubbling with life as they received 241 million cubic feet (mcft) of water during the last two days due to the heavy showers. The city’s water woes are likely to end soon if the rain gods continue to smile.

On Sunday, the reservoirs received 126 mcft and on Monday, an additional flow of 115 mcft was received. This comes as a big relief as the city’s water distribution system has been struggling to meet Chennai’s thirst so far. But the all this rainy ruck depends on how good the monsoon will be.This is the first time the parched reservoirs have been getting water. The water situation was well below 2,000 mcft. Now the reservoirs have water levels more than that.
