Cyclone Nivar In Tamil Nadu

Around 5,000 locals are stranded near Chennai's IT Corridor for the last two weeks as a three-kilometre stretch remains flooded after two cyclones - Cyclone Buveri and Cyclone Nivar - left a trail of damage in Tamil Nadu. A few communities have now hired trucks to help these people in Thalambur and Semmancheri.

Three days after Cyclone Nivar made landfall 150 kilometres away and the rains stopped, hundreds of families still wade through knee deep waters at Varadarajapuram outside the Tamil Nadu capital, an area struggling with the overflowing Chembarambakkam lake nearby.

The Centre on Friday pledged all support to cyclone Nivar-affected Tamil Nadu with both Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister K Palniswami announcing relief to the families of those killed.

After severe cyclonic storm Nivar early Thursday, Tamil Nadu is likely to receive another spell of heavy rainfall as a fresh low pressure area is expected to form in the Bay of Bengal from November 29 onwards, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said.

Hours after the landfall, the tropical storm has weakened from a "very severe cyclonic storm" to a "severe cyclonic storm".
