The cyclone began as a deep depression over Sri Lanka on November 27, then moved north, weakening by December 4. In 10 days, districts like Madurai and Tiruneveli added 194 full tanks each. Tenkasi added 181, Thanjavur 178, and Tiruvallur 174. Now, Madurai has 463 tanks full, Tiruneveli 290, Tenkasi 342, Thanjavur 372, and Tiruvallur 312.
