In many areas of south Chennai, rainwater drained by noon on Thursday, thanks in good measure to the intensity of rain reducing.
Inundation in places such as Mudichur and Neelankarai, which are traditionally prone to flooding, was manageable, residents said. Geetha Ganesh, Secretary of AGS Colony Residents’ Welfare Associaiton, Velachery West, stated that inundation in most areas reduced post-noon, with most of the water draining into Veerangal Odai.
Waterlogging near Hindu Colony in Ullagaram was reported after heavy rain on Wednesday, with homes getting flooded after six inches of inundation on the street. Heavy water stagnation in Meenakshi Nagar and Lakshmi Nagar First Street and Main Road in Madipakkam was also reported.
