Tamil Nadu’s Chennai Meteorological Centre has warned of heavy rain in six districts on September 29, with thunderstorms and strong winds possible in isolated locations. The alert covers Erode, Dindigul, Madurai, Namakkal, Kallakurichi and Tiruvannamalai.
According to the weather centre’s report, the affected areas may receive heavy rainfall accompanied by lightning and strong winds. The warning places local authorities and residents in the six districts on alert for weather-related disruption during the day.
The bulletin also forecast moderate rain at some locations in the Western Ghats districts and in Tirupattur, Vellore, Ranipet, Krishnagiri, Dharmapuri, Karur, Tiruchirappalli, Ariyalur, Perambalur, Villupuram and Cuddalore districts.
The warning has implications for daily movement, road conditions and local services in the affected areas, particularly where intense rain is accompanied by lightning and wind. Residents travelling through exposed roads and low-lying stretches may face changing conditions as showers develop, although the report does not specify particular locations or the expected rainfall totals.
The source report’s headline also refers to a heavy-rain warning for 11 districts on the following day, but the supplied weather bulletin details the six-district warning for September 29 and the areas expected to receive moderate rain. It does not identify the 11 districts covered by the next-day warning.
The Chennai Meteorological Centre’s district-level forecast remains the immediate official guidance cited in the report. Further updates would be required to establish the districts covered by the following day’s warning and any changes to the rainfall outlook.
