<p>The cyclone crossed the coast near Puducherry between 10:30 pm and 11:30 pm, with the wind gusting at 70-80 kmph up to 90 kmph. Steady rains pounded Chennai, its nearby districts and Puducherry affecting public transport, including bus, train and flight services and people from vulnerable areas were moved to safe shelters by authorities.</p>
<p>From Saturday afternoon onwards, there were intermittent rains in most areas and by nightfall, it ceased. Rainwater entered the premises of two state-run hospitals at Chromepet, a general hospital and a facility for thoracic medicine, both of which are located side by side and frequented by people. Water was close to the level of one’s ankle even inside the hospital, leaving healthcare seekers and doctors in a tight spot. Police and local authorities placed sandbags at entry points and said all steps were being taken to address the issue.</p>
