Look at the latest projection by JWTC...
It's destined to HIT South-Andhra. This is happenning after almost 2 years (according to my memory, I'll clarify on this later)
Chennai lies in a least danger zone.
Sky is cloudy and will be cloudy.
Typical sky before a Cyclone.
If the cyclone gathers speed and moves as it is now... then we can expect light showers from Today evening.
