CHENNAI: The Regional Meteorological Department (RMC) on Monday predicted heavy to very heavy rainfall in 10 districts of Tamil Nadu today.
In a statement, the RMC said, "The deep depression that prevailed over Sri Lankan areas today (December 26) is likely to be a depression over the Kanyakumari sea and adjoining areas. It is very likely to move further west-northwestwards and weaken over the southeast Arabian Sea.
