Monsoon 2024: morning after first spell of rain, most areas dry

Some observations made in some areas of Mylapore this morning after the night long rain started on Oct.14 as the NE monsoon broke.
1 Thiruvengadam Street in Mandaveli is not flooded. The street used to see stagnating water
2 St Marys Road is a mess . Careful driving is suggested
3 Kalvi Varu Street is fine; water has drained off well.
4 No big issues on Dr Radhakrishnan Salai though storm water drain and other ]Metro rail work is on here
5 Royapettah High Road was active as early as 5 a.m.
6. Water stagnation was reported on P S Sivaswami Salai and stagnant water
was around 1/2 feet . It was pumped out early in the morning and the road now looked clean
We were told that deputy CM, Udhayanidhi Stalin inspected the areas near Vivekananda College and P S Sivaswami Salai  early this morning.

    The drainage water, due to poor pumping, whenever rain comes the drainage water backladj and fills our house upto 1 ‘
    Att 12 am I report ed 1913, sincerely they recorded my request to send a suction tank lorry and help.
    No action yet most unfortunate. Hope you will take it up. Also rk salai at tneb junction 5’ water
    The drainages pumping should work to help us

  2. You have come unto Sivasamt Street.
    You should have come to Brindavan Street in Mylapore, next to Balakrishna street.
    Water is full in the Street and next spell of rain, water may come inside the house.
    Last year the same situation and this year also the same.

  3. Sivasami salai water entered the house as usual and major disaster
    Next band of rain coming Mr Baskar Seshadri
    Where are you
    Sitting at home and passing half truths😣

    1. We shot photos of the road at 9 am and it was clear. We do not post half-truths. Please refer our FaceBook page.
      If water floods into inside of houses, please share photos and location and date and time. Refrain from posting sharp remarks please.
