The weather in many parts of India has taken a drastic turn as it is raining heavily especially in southern parts. The seriousness of the situation can be understood by the fact that two people have lost their lives due to rain in Chennai and all this is happening because of a cyclone, “Michaung”.
As of now, Michaung is over Bay of Bengal and it is moving towards the coast of Andhra and most probably the cyclonic storm will make a landfall at the location falling between Nellore and Machilipatnam by tomorrow afternoon.
The districts of Tamil Nadu which are the most affected are Chennai, Chengalpattu, Nagapattinam, Thiruvallur, Cuddalore and Kancheepuram as many parts of these areas are submerged in water and even cars are seen floating on the waterlogged roads.

Many areas of these districts are facing power and Internet problems and it has also affected the airport operations in a severe manner as around 70 flights were cancelled due to non-stop rains.

What has made things worse is the fact that a crocodile was seen roaming on the roads and this is certainly scary.
Here is the video in which you can see crocodile walking on the road before moving into the bushes.
Edhu crocodile ah🥲👀
Stay safe Chennai.
