The India Meteorological Department (IMD) warned that the deep depression hovering close to the coast would continue to bring intense spells of rain.

According to the IMD, a deep depression has remained nearly stationary about 50 km east of Chennai for several hours. The system is expected to drift southwestward and weaken into a depression within the next 12 hours, moving to around 30 km from the city. Even as it weakens, its proximity is intensifying rain bands over northern Tamil Nadu.
