The air is heavy with moisture, the earth is saturated, and the relentless drumming of rain has become the state's unnerving soundtrack. In a scene that is becoming tragically familiar, the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a red alert for eight key districts—Chennai, Tiruvallur, Kancheepuram, Chengalpattu, Ranipet, Vellore, Tirupattur, and Tiruvannamalai.
