The downstream reach and local body list for Chimoni have not been transcribed from a District Disaster Management Plan yet, so none are shown.

No rule curve (seasonal guide curve) is published for Chimoni in a form this platform can verify, so none is shown. Where an operating curve is published — as for Idukki after the 2018 floods — it is plotted against actual storage instead of being estimated.
Chimoni is at 86% storage, unchanged, with the water level at 73.71 m versus the 76.4 m FRL; there is no spill and no current alert level. Recent rain was only 1.5 mm, but forecasts of 23 mm in 24 hours and 60.2 mm in 72 hours could raise inflows; the next alert would be triggered if the reservoir reaches its first prescribed alert threshold, which is not provided.
