On Dec. 12, a “very severe” cyclonic storm hit Tamil Nadu shores, causing death and destruction in its capital city, Chennai, besides other areas.

The cyclone named Vardah made landfall north of Chennai at around 3pm. The weather department had initially forecast that the cyclone would weaken before making landfall but that did not happen and the city was lashed by winds blowing at up to 140 kmph
