Chennai: Cyclone Nilam crashed into Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh on Wednesday evening, bringing heavy showers and gusty winds but causing far less destruction that many had feared, especially after the devastation caused by superstorm Sandy.
One sailor was killed while five others are missing at sea and are feared dead after a large oil tanker beached off the Chennai coast as the cyclone churned the sea waters. In AP, three people were killed in rain-related mishaps.
