Kerala weather update: Decrease in rain intensity, school closures continue
Kerala's heavy rains are finally slowing down, with the weather department saying only light to moderate showers are expected in the coming days.
But even as the rain lets up, flooding and its impact are far from over for many people across the state.
Schools shut, families in relief camps
Flooding has shut schools in places like Kuttanad and forced families out of their homes into relief camps—there are now 15 camps running in Kottayam and Thrissur alone.
High tides and sea water have damaged houses, while some residents in Kannamaly even blocked roads to protest ongoing waterlogging.
Mudslides, swollen rivers make daily life tough
Nonstop rain has triggered mudslides and swollen rivers in districts like Kannur and Kasaragod, making daily life tough.
From cracks appearing on forest land to temples getting flooded, efforts are underway to help everyone get back on their feet.
