When Chennai was issued with the red alert as the sequel of the prediction of extremely heavy rainfall, the residents of Chennai had a rewind of memories of what happened six years back, in 2015, where the incessant floods triggered by the heavy downpour had devasted the city and caused massive disruption, with several residents moved out of the city with the hope of swift normalcy. These memories still haunt the Chennaiites as they brace up a similar scale of disruption, which displayed nothing has changed in six years. 

Several residents had lost their properties and belongings during the 2015 floods and as those memories come back as a nightmare, the residents had found a place to not lose their cars this time -- a busy flyover. A flyover between Velachery and Pallikaranai had become the new parking bay for the local people as they have parked their cars on both sides of the flyover to ensure that what had happened in 2015 shouldn't happen now.

As several residences and public areas were largely inundated by the rainwater with having no space for draining out, the residents had preferred to park their vehicles on the flyover to escape waterlogging so that their vehicles won't suffer damages. According to reports, over a dozen of vehicles have been parked on the flyover. Besides damaging properties across the state, the current spell of heavy rainfall had killed many in Tamil Nadu. 

On Wednesday - November 10, Tami Nadu Minister for Revenue and Disaster Management, KKSSR Ramachandran has said that the death toll due to heavy rainfall in the state stands at 12 so far. "As of now, 11 teams of NDRF and 7 teams of Tamil Nadu State Disaster Response Force are deployed." The rainfall had also killed several cattle across the state and several people had injured due to the debris. The lives in most parts are yet to return to normalcy and the state government had expedited the relief works and kept more teams ready to address the calamity. 

On the morning hours of Wednesday, IMD has said that the low-pressure area on the Bay of Bengal would form into a depression over southwest Bay of Bengal during the next 12 hours, move west-northwestward and reach near north Tamil Nadu coast by the early morning of November 11. Thereafter, it is likely to continue to move west-northwestwards and cross north Tamil Nadu and adjoining south Andhra Pradesh coast between Karaikal and Sriharikota around Cuddalore by the evening of November 11. 

While bracing up for very heavy rains on November 11, a fresh warning has been issued for Chennai on Wednesday that a new low-pressure area is likely to form over the Andaman Sea and its neighbourhood on November 13. The IMD has said, "A fresh low-pressure area is likely to form over south Andaman Sea and neighbourhood around 13th Nov. It is likely to move west northwestwards and become more marked during subsequent 48 hours." According to the meteorological department, the system may head towards Andhra Pradesh and reach the coast around November 17, during which it is predicted that Chennai would receive a rainfall.
