The Tamil Nadu government has activated emergency protocols after the India Meteorological Department issued a heavy rainfall warning for several coastal districts. Authorities are urging residents to take necessary precautions as intense weather conditions are forecasted to hit the region.
Districts Under Severe Weather Threat
Meteorological data indicates that heavy to very heavy rainfall is expected to occur at one or two places in four key districts: Cuddalore, Mayiladuthurai, Thiruvarur, and Nagapattinam. This severe weather alert is valid for the next 24 hours from the evening of November 16, 2025.
Government's Precautionary Response
In response to the imminent threat, the state administration has proactively instructed district collectors and local authorities in the affected regions to implement all necessary safety measures. The directive emphasizes the need for vigilance and readiness to handle potential emergencies, including waterlogging and flooding.
Residents in low-lying areas have been advised to remain cautious and stay updated with official weather bulletins. The government's priority is to minimize disruption and ensure public safety during this period of intense rainfall.
