The forecasted heavy rain and thunderstorms may provide much-needed relief from the scorching heat in Tamil Nadu, particularly in districts like Nilgiris and Coimbatore. However, the gusty winds accompanying the rain could pose risks such as falling branches or minor structural damage. The ongoing heatwave has been particularly severe in Western Ghats districts like Tenkasi, Tirunelveli, Theni, and Coimbatore, where residents are eagerly awaiting rainfall. The weather conditions may also impact daily activities, especially during the evening and night in Chennai and other affected areas.
