Heavy Rains and Landslides Cause Chaos in Kerala
Recent heavy rains have led to severe landslides and flooding in Kerala, with the Athirapally Falls now becoming a focal point of the devastation. A viral video circulating on social media captures the powerful current of the waterfall amid the ongoing monsoon season, contrasting starkly with visuals from three years prior.
The video, shared by Raja Ramasamy, highlights the dramatic transformation of Athirapally Falls due to the intense rainfall. “Kerala rains triggering huge landslides and flooding across North Kerala, Wayanad region. 20 people died, many feared trapped. Athirapally falls today and 3 years back,” Ramasamy wrote, emphasizing the severity of the current situation.
The footage underscores the deadly impact of the recent weather conditions, with the Athirapally Falls flowing with unprecedented force. The heavy rainfall has triggered widespread landslides and flood-like conditions, particularly affecting the Wayanad region and other parts of North Kerala.
