Tamil Nadu IMD Orange alert today: Chennai and North TN schools remain open with no heavy rain
Chennai and northern Tamil Nadu remain largely dry despite an IMD Orange alert issued for several coastal districts. Residents report no heavy rainfall, and schools in Chennai, Chengalpattu, Tiruvallur, and nearby areas continue normal operations. The alert, prompted by a strengthening low-pressure system over the southwest Bay of Bengal, signals possible very heavy rain, but northern districts remain unaffected. Fishing communities have been advised caution, while southern districts may receive moderate rainfall over the next 24 hours.
