New Delhi: Today, the Severe Cyclonic Storm (SCS) Michaung made landfall in Baptla, Andhra Pradesh. Following landfall, it weakened into a cyclonic storm and is expected to move northward. However, prior to reaching the coast, the cyclone significantly affected the southern states of Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh, bringing relentless rainfall for nearly a week.

In today's DNA, Zee News Anchor Shobhna Yadav analyzed the devastating impact of Cyclone Michaung in Tamil Nadu. Despite making landfall in Andhra Pradesh today, Tamil Nadu has been grappling with the severe effects of the cyclonic storm for the past seven days, experiencing continuous rainfall.

The prolonged rainfall in Tamil Nadu led to severe waterlogging in Chennai, the capital city. The airport runway was flooded, resulting in the closure of the airfield and the diversion of multiple flights.
