Western Ghats experience downpour
The Tamirabharani continues to be in spate as the Western Ghats experienced heavy downpour on Monday night.
The overnight widespread rainfall in the district, especially along the Western Ghats, ensured huge influx of water into the Papanasam Dam on Monday night. After discharging 15,000 cusecs of water from Papanasam, Servalar and Gadana Dams on Monday night following heavy rainfall in the catchment areas of these dams, quantum of water being released from these dams was reduced on Tuesday after rain relented. However, the heavy discharge of water from the reservoirs and the water entered the Tamirabharani from wild streams swelled the perennial river a lot.
