Though the rains in Chennai have disrupted the people in all ways, there is a good news to rejoice. Chennai`s four reservoirs have started to fill up, reaching around 20% of their combined capacity, guaranteeing drinking water supply to the city for the next three months.
Officials of Metro Water say the heavy showers, triggered by a deep depression over the Bay of Bengal had on Thursday swelled combined storage in the Poondi, Sholavaram, Red Hills and Chembarambakkam reservoirs to 2.2 thousand million cubic feet (tmcft). The total capacity is 11.05tmcft.
