Recent moderate rainfall in Coimbatore has led to significant water accumulation under the Vadakkovai flyover, causing difficulties for vehicle drivers on July 17.


Coimbatore: The city of Coimbatore has been experiencing moderate rainfall in various areas over the past few days, resulting in a cooler climate and reduced temperatures. This change in weather has brought relief to residents from the prevailing heat.

However, the rainfall on July 16 has led to an unexpected problem in one of the city's key areas. A large amount of rainwater has accumulated under the Vadakkovai flyover, creating a challenging situation for commuters.
