Kanyakumari: As per India Meteorological Department's (IMD) latest prediction, Tamil Nadu will receive heavy to very heavy rainfall in 10 districts, as the deep depressions that have prevailed over Sri Lanka are likely to become a depression over the Kanyakumari sea and adjoining areas. The IMD`s Regional Meteorological Centre (RMC) said that the depression is likely to move further west-northwestwards and weaken over the southeast Arabian Sea. This depression would lead to heavy to very heavy rains in many regions of south Tamil Nadu and some places of north Tamil Nadu. Further, as a precautionary measure, IMD has also advised fishermen not to enter the sea coasts.
