False alarm: IMD red alert fizzles as Chennai sees light rain only; schools remain closed
Weather alerts for heavy rain in Tamil Nadu, including Chennai, proved largely inaccurate as a low-pressure system fizzled out. While some areas saw light showers, major warnings were downgraded. Experts cite the dynamic nature of weather systems and interactions between the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea for the forecast discrepancies.
