Citing officials, IANS reported that several western and southern districts are expected to receive moderate to heavy rainfall on Saturday.

The affected districts include: Coimbatore, Nilgiris, Tiruppur, Theni, Dindigul, Erode, Salem, Namakkal, and Karur.

The forecast warns of isolated spells of heavy rain in one or two locations within these regions.

Furthermore, in the 24 hours ending at 8:30 am on Friday, Tirunelveli district recorded the heaviest rainfall. Nalumukku in Tirunelveli registered 16 cm of rain — the highest in the state. Some officials have noted that the widespread rains have brought relief to parched regions in southern Tamil Nadu, though continuous downpours in the hilly regions have raised concerns of landslides and waterlogging.

Notably, the MeT has urged the citizens in the affected districts to remain cautious and avoid unnecessary travel during heavy showers. Fishermen have been advised to exercise caution.
