Fourteen people were killed in rain-related incidents in Tamil Nadu as the depression over the Bay of Bengal crossed coast near Chennai on Thursday morning. 

According to reports, a red alert for heavy rainfall — issued for eight Tamil Nadu districts — was withdrawn after the depression weakened at landfall. 

In Chennai, flooding, triggered by intense showers and release of surplus from dams transformed several areas into a virtual, large water body.
