Tamil Nadu is set for a sharp weather contrast this week. While several western and southern districts are likely to receive heavy rainfall until June 7, residents in Chennai and other northern coastal areas may continue to grapple with intense heat and humidity.
The India Meteorological Department (IMD) and the Regional Meteorological Centre (RMC) have warned of widespread rain, thunderstorms, lightning and gusty winds across large parts of the state, even as temperatures remain above 40°C in some northern districts.
