Chennai: The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has forecast heavy rainfall at one or two places in seven districts of Tamil Nadu—Cuddalore, Ariyalur, Mayiladuthurai, Thanjavur, Thiruvarur, Nagapattinam, and Pudukkottai—as well as in Karaikal today. A lower-level atmospheric circulation over South Coastal Tamil Nadu and the adjoining Gulf of Mannar is driving the wet weather.
