Rains lash Andhra Pradesh under influence of cyclone

October 31, 2012 12:07

As Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu brace for cyclone Nilam, rain and strong gales have already hit Nellore in Andhra Pradesh and other neighbouring districts of Tamil Nadu.

The cyclone is expected to make a landfall this evening between Cuddalore in Tamil Nadu and Nellore, bringing in heavy rains in the region with tide expected to reach levels of 1.5 meters.

The Andhra Pradesh Government has put administration of the coastal districts under alert to face the situation and made arrangements accordingly. The impact in South-costal Andhra was unlikely to be as severe as was being feared.
