Northeast Monsoon Rain - Hot Sunnny Day ends with rain

In Sivakasi, a bright start to the day was end in scattered drizzle at night and rain with band of clouds developed during late evening around 8:40 p.m.. Today, after a sweltering day, as the day progressed a band of cloud and rain hit Sivakasi. Within minutes of a steady rain the town was seen flooded and clogged. There was good rain from 09:15 p.m. to 10:05 p.m.. Rain accompanied with thunders and lightnings. Rain water harvesting systems, installed in buildings, received copious amount of water. And more rain is expected for the next one week. The recent heavy downpour and thunderstorms increased the water inflow to Periyakulam, Sirukulam Kanmai and other water reservoirs in Sivakasi. It is expected that Northeast monsoon rain will give significant inflow of water to Periyakulam and Sirukulam Kanmai and enable Sivakasians to over overcome the water crisis in the next summer.
