CHENNAI RAIN, THUNDER AND MIDNIGHT 'LIGHTNING' - VIDEOS AND PICS INSIDE!

The news, 'Schools will function normally across all the places in Chennai' might just because of morning calm weather. On September 18 (Wednesday) Chennai received a great deal of evening rain which sustained until mid-night along with thunderstorms and lightning before calming down with moody cloud and drizzles in the early morning.

While the residents of Chennai might have experienced yesterday's total control of continuous rain and other factors, there were some of the people who shared interesting pictures and videos on Twitter.

One has to really tap his or her senses often to believe the picture shared by a twitter user, Sasikanth Manivannan who said it is 1:45 am. He captioned the picture as "Can't believe one plus captured it perfectly. Pic took at 1:45am dark night" (sic).

He also added, "Minnal Velicham" (Lightening) to specify the time of the picture which looks like day time. Though it is clear that he had uploaded the picture yesterday night, there were some replies which did not accept the time of the picture.
