**Heavy Rainfall Expected in Four Tamil Nadu Districts Today**
**Chennai, September 26, 2025** – The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has issued a warning of heavy rainfall in Coimbatore, Nilgiris, Theni, and Tenkasi districts of Tamil Nadu today, September 26, 2025 (Purattasi 10, Viswavasu year).
The announcement comes after several areas in the state experienced moderate rainfall in the past 24 hours. Manalmedu in Mayiladuthurai district recorded the highest rainfall at 6 cm, followed by Sembanarkoil and Tarangambadi, also in Mayiladuthurai district, with 4 cm each.
The IMD attributes the anticipated heavy rainfall to an upper atmospheric circulation over the Bay of Bengal near the Myanmar coast. This system is expected to develop into a low-pressure area today.
“Due to the variation in the speed of westerly winds, there is a possibility of light to moderate rain with thunder and lightning in some places in Tamil Nadu, Puducherry, and Karaikal today,” stated an IMD spokesperson.
The forecast indicates that moderate rainfall is likely to continue in Tamil Nadu until October 1st. Heavy rainfall is specifically predicted for Coimbatore and Nilgiris districts tomorrow.
**Fishermen Advised to Stay Away from Sea**
The IMD has also issued a warning for fishermen, advising them against venturing into the Bay of Bengal (Southern, Central, Northern, and near the Andaman region) for the next three days. Squally winds with speeds of 45-55 kmph, gusting up to 65 kmph, are expected in these areas.
