Tamil Nadu is on high alert as Cyclone Fengal advances over the Southwest Bay of Bengal, with predictions from the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) indicating that the system will intensify into a cyclonic storm by November 27, 2024. Coastal regions, particularly between Chennai and Nagappattinam, are bracing for potential landfall in the coming days, prompting precautionary measures across the state.

Heavy Rainfall Expected
The IMD has forecasted heavy to extremely heavy rainfall across several districts, with Cuddalore and Mayiladuthurai under red alerts. Coastal areas, including Chennai, are expected to experience significant downpours, along with strong winds. This situation has led authorities to take preemptive action, including the closure of schools in Chennai and other vulnerable districts.

Preparations Underway
District administrations are actively coordinating disaster management efforts to mitigate the storm’s potential impact. Relief teams have been deployed, and fishermen have been advised against venturing into the sea. The state is on standby with emergency shelters and evacuation plans for affected areas. Electricity boards are also working to ensure power supply remains stable or is restored quickly in the event of disruptions.

Potential Landfall
Cyclone Fengal is expected to make landfall between Chennai and Nagappattinam, a region historically susceptible to cyclonic impacts. As the storm moves closer to the coastline, the authorities are monitoring its trajectory and intensity to provide timely updates.
