The rains have been pouring continuously for the past 3 days in Chennai and hence the already waterlogged roads have literally become like pools all over the place.
The past week itself has been a wet one and the condition has only worsened since. The rains have caused major transport problems and I dont think that any vehicle can pass through the city roads without getting into water problems. Even the buses and other major means of transport have stopped functioning their normal operations. The schools and colleges have been declared as holidays for the 3rd straight day.
Although the intensity of the rains have lessened owing to the cyclone having crossed the land, the water that has logged doesn't seem to be draining away that easy. The dams have been filled upto their maximum capacity and some are even opened to drain off the excess water.
I guess the situation will continue for the next couple of days as well even if there are no more rains.
