Chennai: Authorities declared a holiday for schools and other educational institutions in Chennai as a torrential rain lashed metro city and its suburbs since last night.

The Regional Meteorological Centre (RMC), Chennai, has predicted rain for a week from November 11, due to a low pressure area formed under the influence of an upper air cyclonic circulation over southwest Bay of Bengal. The associated cyclonic circulation was likely to move slowly nearly westwards towards the Tamil Nadu/Sri Lanka coasts during the



next two days, it had said.

Moderate to heavy rain was experienced in several places over Chennai, Tiruvallur, Kancheepuram, Chengalpattu, Cuddalore, Mayiladuthurai, Nagapattinam, Thanjavur, Tiruvarur, Pudukkottai, Ramanathapuram, Villuppuram districts, Puducherry and Karaikal area.

Following heavy rain, Chennai district Collector Rashmi Siddharth Zagade announced a holiday for schools on Tuesday. Colleges, however, functioned as usual.
